    The Maze Runner

    The Maze Runner written by James Dashner is the first book of the series. I love this book because it fits the style that I always read. It is like the Percy Jackson series which is the kind of book I get hooked to, and a good book to carry around on many occasions. For me, when I read a book, and I become hooked, I know that book or series is going to be amazing and meant for me. That is what exactly happened to me.
    This book is about a boy named Thomas. He is in a humungous box trapped with strangers he doesn’t know. At first he was afraid until he met Chuck, his first friend. Chuck shows him around and tells him they call this the Glade. After he is shown around, Thomas hears a loud scream, wondering what it is he sprints to the sound and sees a boy strangled to a chair with bloodshot eyes and green skin. Thomas is so terrified he passes out and forgets everything. Afterwards, he wakes up and is greeted by Chuck. They both go for food at Frypan’s kitchen while the runners return. He is then greeted by the leader of the Glade, Minho. Minho is surprised how Thomas was the first newbie to see what happened to a glader in the house. Later, he shows Thomas what was outside the box. Outside was pitch black, but Thomas has a feeling that something is out there; he waits and something sprints by, it was horrific, it had no skin, a metal arm, and a tail of a scorpion.
    This book is the bestselling in the New York Times, and continues to get better and better. Action packed, adventure and mysteries through the humungous maze looking for a way out. With one girl and a bunch of boys, will they find civilization? Will they escape the terror that they have been in for many years? Read the book to find out if they escape the horrific maze.
