A review by irxren
The Maze Runner by James Dashner

4.0

In a dystopian world, Thomas wakes up in the Glade, a walled sanctuary for boys with erased memories. The group faces monsters outside and a mysterious experiment. When the first girl, Teresa, arrives, she triggers a rebellion led by Thomas against the monsters and those controlling their fate, with the unknown outside world presenting additional challenges.

This book really left a mark on me—it's like a thrilling rollercoaster of adventure, mystery, and inspiration all rolled into one. The story is so well-crafted that you feel just as trapped in the maze as the characters. The first half is a wild ride with more twists and turns than you can imagine, leaving you with more questions than answers. However, my only gripe is that the latter half felt a bit rushed, throwing in random bits that didn't quite fit together seamlessly.
