atray 's review for:

The Maze Runner by James Dashner
3.0

Yeah...well...uhm...tough one.
I really liked it for the first two thirds. It was exciting, it was fun, it didn't contain a stupid love story (thank you!). I thought I might love it. Especially when some theories by my friend showed up and made sense - character names and stuff.
The language of the Gladers however was too Gangsterlike for me in the beginning. Took me a while to get used to it and I can't say I really liked it. But it was something to get used to.
Either way...then came the point when it got boring. They started to figure things out way too easily. Things got obvious - things they couldn't figure out within two years and then bam, hello. A bit unrealistic. Memories were brought up but never really mentioned. I guess I'll find out about those in the next book. But still, it leaves you with too many questions. And then comes the end and in my opinion unnecessary stuff happens.
Many many questions left open - but I got the other two books already and maybe I will find my answers in those. 3 stars from me.
