OLD Review: I really enjoyed the book! I'm still reading through the second one, and it's not as enjoyable as the first one, but this first book really made me enjoy the concept of Maze Runner.
New Review 10/3/2024: Years later and I'm still in love with this book! I love the writing and all of the characters in it! It's been great to see side characters I've forgotten about and love them all over again. It's been so long since I've read this that I was wonderfully surprised at a lot of moments that happened.
I vaguely remember the movie and I'm sorta happy that it's changed some stuff from the book? I'm going to see the movie again today to make sure I feel this way. As of right now, I like that there's changes because it fits the feel of the movie while keeping the charm of this book.
I'm so glad I picked this series back up again. I laughed a little at seeing my old review because I never finished the Scorched Trials and now I'm about to see if I get those same feelings.
I've never seen the Scorched Trials movie and I'm wondering if watching that will help me or not. I think if the changes continued in the second movie then I should just stick with the book first.
Overall, amazing book! One of the few that has a special place in my heart ❤️
