renoku 's review for:
The Maze Runner Files
by James Dashner
I'd been wanting to read this book for a while, but nothing really spurred me into reading it until I heard that Dylan O'Brien was starring in the film. But overall, it was a lot better than I expected. I was hooked immediately from the beginning, with driving characters and interesting plot. Honestly, the characters are the best part of the book, the dialogue sounding natural for the most part, and the emotions very human. None of the characters are two-dimensional either, and they're all really well developed. Along with this, the world created was intriguing and mysterious, and I wish the story was just LONGER so that we could see more of the Maze!
For me what made me drop the rating down to a four was somewhat the simplistic writing style, but really just the climax and ending. I had to suspend my belief far too much than I was comfortable with, but then it made a little more sense at the end? Sort of? Also, of all the characters... But yeah, not too impressed with the ending, but not it definitely intrigued me enough to want to read the next book. Good thing I already have it! :P
