It starts off a bit slow but picks up towards the middle. Not the most engaging thing I've ever read but it wasn't bad.

The last 50 pages were wild. The rest of the book was just okay. The movie definitely did not do this story justice. Then again, the characters lack a lot of depth. I now they are supposed to be kids remembering who they are after being brainwashed and manipulated but lots of them have like no personality… All in all not a bad book, I think the next one will be more interesting. The whole plot twist with the creators at the end is really eerie and I’m excited to see what happens next.

Really easy, basic writing and enough happening every few chapters you keep you interested. Super super needlessly long in some parts but not bad. I can see myself liking this a decade ago when it came out. It actually lines up with the movie well (I saw the movies multiple times before reading this). But tbh I thought the movie was better bc it kept things succinct and made it clearer
