Hey everybody!
I'm back and I'm so happy....my school just closed today for the summer vacations and I've got 2 months of non-stop reading ahead of me (kinda). So, I'm really excited!
Anyway, I finished The Maze Runner and I'm currently reading the next book The Scorch Trials.
Note: There will or may be a lot of spoilers ahead. So, if you haven't read The Maze Runner and think you want to and will read it sometime, I advise you not to read ahead.
I remember saying that the first chapter of The Maze Runner was boring. But trust me when I say that the rest of the book is not (at least not in my opinion). The book was really interesting and kept me wanting more throughout. Many people say that the characters were boring but I really liked Thomas and Teresa's characters. Teresa is a no-nonsense girl. She doesn't like being treated as fragile or weak or being treated differently just because she's the only girl in a bunch of guys. I also really liked Chuck who becomes the annoying, little brother Thomas didn't have or remember having. Chuck's death was really tragic but kinda expected, which is the only reason why I didn't find myself crying. And you know how emotional I am.
I knew from the start that this book has got something to do with scientists who have purposely kept these kids in a difficult environment, but I didn't know why. In that way it is kind of similar to the Maximum Ride series. I've never liked the idea of a the main character being a pawn in some crazy scientists experiment but this book had me asking for more.
The epilogue is in some ways a cliffhanger cause the book ends and James has you convinced that their all safe and sound, but then you read the epilogue and find out it's all part of the plan! That made me really desperate to read The Scorch Trials, which I'm currently reading.
Overall I liked the book, though it is not one of my favourites. So, I'll give it 4/5 rating.
It is a good book though, and for those of you who like Dystopian fiction, I do recommend it.
Now that my assessments are over and my vacation has started I will probably finish 2-3 books a week or more (but it depends, I may go to India, in which case I don't think I'll be able to write frequent reviews). So, I won't stick to my initial "review on every Thursday" thing, but will write the review the day I finish the book.
Okay. So, I got to go read The Scorch Trials now and maybe watch some Doctor Who. I'll see you when I finish The Scorch Trials.
Byeee :D
