A bit less going on in this book than book #1, but we finally get some lore answers! Not all of them, but enough to feel that "happy until the next book" feeling.
My only real complaint about The Scorch Trials is the girls needed better characterization. The few we meet were pretty flat. Just kinda there. Teresa is the most well-rounded female character so far, but even she could use some work.

Interesting, but didn't hold my attention like the first. In many places the writing could be enhanced by some fresh adjectives and verbs
Graphic: Death, Gore, Terminal illness, and Schizophrenia/Psychosis
