Just finished THE MAZE RUNNER at the recommendation of Chief. Unfortunately I never read it when he submitted it as his book several months ago. But he recently told me that I would probably like it and I should give it a try.
So I did and was very pleasantly surprised!! Two thumbs up on that one for sure. I was skeptical since this book (and series) is for young readers. So I thought maybe I wouldn't like it. (Especially after being forever altered by the very non-young reader 1984!) But I was very wrong. As Stephen Colbert says, "Young adult fiction just means fiction that people actually read." Great book IMO and I am definitely completing the series.
Brief description of the series: initial series was a trilogy but a fourth book was released as a prequel to the original three. And now a fifth book is coming out in September. It is another prequel but I'm unsure if it takes place before or after book 4 (first prequel).
So thanks Chief for following up with me to read this book. It was well worth it. I can't wait to read the second installment THE SCORCH TRIALS.
But first I am reading GUESTS ON EARTH of course. Only two chapters in right now. I think the author is a very good writer. Very good at describing scenes and stuff.
Archimedes and Instill owe you the posts from the last meeting and show. Hopefully soon.
Until next time spirits
