There Are Only Four
by Nicole Scarano
I picked up this novella when I got an e-mail about e-books that were on sale. As soon as I read the synopsis I knew it was right up my alley. This is a dystopian novel about teenagers who are broken up into teams and all the teams are set against each other to solve this maze. Whoever makes it through the maze the fastest will be allowed their freedom. It seemed like gritty combination of The Hunger Games and the Maze Runner. And it stayed pretty true to my perception.
I feel like you definitely have to go into this one with a suspension of disbelief. Understand the book you’re about to pick up and I think you will have a good time. This is a fast paced and easy read. I read it in basically two sittings. I think the storyline is compelling enough to keep you reading, but the character development is what sold me on the story. I love the main character and her friendship with Luka. I also love how creepy and weird this feels as they drop into the maze. And that ending was done so well.
The things I think take away from the story is the lack of world building and the fact that a lot of the questions the reader has don’t get answered. I’m hopeful that the next book in the series will answer those questions and provide more world building for us to enjoy. I am definitely open to continuing this series to see where it goes from here.
