The Death Cure - James Dashner

After my huge purposeful delay, I finished the final book on the Maze Runner Series - The Death Cure - written by James Dashner.

Thomas knows that Wicked can't be trusted, but they say the time for lies is over, that they've collected all they can from the Trials and now must rely on the Gladers, with full memories restored, to help them with their ultimate mission. It's up to the Gladers to complete the blueprint for the cure to the Flare with a final voluntary test. What Wicked doesn't know is that  something's happened that no Trial or Variable could have foreseen. Thomas has remembered far more than they think. And he knows that he can't believe a word of what Wicked says. The time for lies is over. But the truth is more dangerous than Thomas could ever imagine. Will anyone survive the Death Cure?

After ending the second book and reading this I thought the third was going to be the worst in terms of "frustration".

That didn't happen. 

The Scorch Trials - James Dashner

Hey!

Yesterday I didn't had any free time to come here but at least I finished the second book - The Scorch Trials - on the The Maze Runner series by James Dashner. Therefore, here's my review.

"Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. No more puzzles. No more variables. And no more running. Thomas was sure that escape meant he and the Gladers would get their lives back. But no one really knew what sort of life they were going back to.

In the Maze, life was easy. They had food, and shelter, and safety... until Teresa triggered the end. In the world outside the Maze, however, the end was triggered long ago.

Burned by sun flares and baked by a new, brutal climate the earth is a wasteland. Government has disintegrated - and with it, order - and now Cranks, people covered in festering wounds and driven to murderous insanity by the infectious disease known as the Flare, roam the crumbling cities hunting for their next victim... and meal.

The Gladers are far from finished with running. Instead of freedom, they find themselves faced with another trial. They must cross the Scorch, the most burned-out section of the world, and arrive at a safe haven in two weeks. And WICKED has made sure to adjust variable and stack the odds against them. Thomas can only wonder - does he hold  the secret of somewhere in his mind? Or will he forever be at the mercy of WICKED?"

When I wrote about the first book, I said it was supper frustrating and suffered while reading, wasn't it? Well, forget all about that because the sequel is worse. So much worse! 

Have Faith In Me

Yesterday I wrote I was going to starting reading the The Scorch Trials but I ended up going to bed super late and decided to re-read another book instead. I chose Spellcaster because was the last book I finished.
Moving on to the point of this, I talked on some previous post that Spellbound and Spellcaster have playlists but when I finished the second book I forgot all about it and didn't checked which songs belonged to the list and last night I did check.
Great songs! There's probably my favourite Paramore song there which makes me happy because "plays" during a nice scene.
But the best part was discovering a A Day To Remember song - Have Faith In Me - among the others. I love that song and also "can be heard" on a cool scene.

I had completely forgotten this song. I'm stupid. So now clearly my obsession returned and I'm very thankful with it ;)

The Maze Runner - James Dasher

Hi!

Book review today about The Maze Runner written by James Dashner.

"When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his first name. His memory is blank. But he's not alone. When the lift's doors open, Thomas finds himself surrounded by kids who welcome him to the Glade - a large, open expanse surrounded by stone walls.

Just like Thomas, the Gladers don't know why or how they got to the Glade. All they know is that every morning the stone doors to the maze that surrounds them have opened. Every night they've closed tight. And every 30 days a new boy has been delivered in the lift.

Thomas was expected. But the next day, a girl is sent up - the first girl ever arrive in the Glade. And more surprising yet is the message she delivers.

Thomas might be more important than he could ever guess. If only he could unlock the dark secrets buried within his mind."

My story towards this book is kind of funny, because I was finished with Spellcaster for a few days and was crazy looking for one brand-new obsession. I went to iBook Store searching for a new book when accidentally I clicked on The Maze Runner. I read the little summary and thought it could be fun. I downloaded the Sample first, read it all and decided to download the complete version.

At first I was a little disinterested because it was frustrating and confusing. The poor boy alone and no one answered his questions but I forced myself to pay attention and was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
