  1. Great review! I also found The Maze Runner to be a great book, but the rest of the series was a little disappointing. Your description of thought provoking and engrossing is spot on, this book definitely deserves the must-read label.

  2. This review was so well written! I love your engrossing description of the series. I read this book in middle school, and like Eve said, I definitely thought the first book was the best, but the author did an amazing job of keeping the reader interested through all his books. Amazing job!

  4. Hi!
    I keep hearing about The Maze Runner movies but I never knew they were inspired by a book series! I normally do not love dystopian books because they can be cliche but this sounds interesting. You wrote your review eloquently and made the book sound very compelling. Good job!

  6. Hi,
    I have never read the book, but I tried to watch the beginning of the movie. I thought it wasn't very interesting and was just a lot of action scenes with not a very complex plot, but I think I should give it a second chance after reading your review.

  8. I read this book a long time ago, and I remember getting addicted to the series, and I read all of them in the end. I think he did a good job in the beginning, but in the final ones I really didn't like how they ended.
