Minho (and probably Newt as well) is the only thing that really kept me reading.

Also the whole telepathy thing was so bad and lazy, and the way it just jumped from person to person was just not my cup of tea. There were a bunch of plot holes, too.


I really wanted to like it as a huge fan of the films, but it was okay at the very most.
