The Maze Runner by James Dashner


My Edition: Paperback; 374 pages
Goodreads: CLICK ME

I'm a sucker for romance, so when a book that contains no romance, but is still able to keep me entertained, I gotta call it a miracle.

The Maze Runner is a book about survival. We follow the protagonist, Thomas, as he wakes up in this weird box and is being sent to The Glade, which is a place in a giant maze. There are already quite a number of boys in The Glade, and their memories have all been wiped out. Thomas, dying to grasp his memories and find out the truth behind this maze, discovers his important role in escaping the maze.

The One by Kiera Cass

The selection trilogy is a fairytale; a fairy tale that's not only full of love, but also struggles and sorrow.

As usual, Cass did a great job in telling a very lovely story. The plot is smooth; and the story is fast-paced. Cass' writing style is down-to-earth, making me easier to get into the story.

 In The One, we are able to get to know more about the two main characters, America and Prince Maxon, who have quite a strong character development throughout these three books, which is great because it's like we are growing with the characters.
