In the Maze Runner we have Thomas, who finds himself in the Glade with other boys who have been sent there. They have been trying to find a way to get out of the maze but have not yet succeeded. Later we see Thomas go in the maze at night to help his injured friends. Readers of the Divergent series will love this book. Filled with mystery and suspense.This book is told in 3rd person limited POV using pronouns such as he/they/she. Good Book. :)

Entering a book slump after reading The Hunger Games prompted me to try another YA dystopian universe. Unfortunately, I was sorely disappointed (the book slump continues). Dashner's series lacks any real substance. There are no existential questions to ponder. No political meat. No political statement. No quest for morality. Which left the novel two-dimensional. The slang made the dialogue feel stilted and immature. (1/3).

TheIntrovertedDodoBird The characters were irksome and soulless. The randomly gifted protagonist felt cliched. Dashner's writing is a prime example of telling the reader instead of showing, which made the prose insipid. The description of the "strong female lead" was better suited to a Disney film, with her Snow White features. The quote - a pretty, feminine voice that sounded as if it came from a fairy goddess trapped in his skull - made me DNF. (2/3) 6mo
TheIntrovertedDodoBird The queer-baiting aspect of the series irked me, as well, with Dashner announcing some of the characters were LGBTQ+ after the series ended. Then, there are the patriarchal undertones in the book that cemented the misogynistic portrayal of the female lead, in my opinion. It's frustrating since I made the mistake of purchasing the box set. (3/3). 6mo
Bookwormjillk Oh bummer on the box set. Have you read Divergent or Ready Player One? It‘s been a few years but I remember liking those after Hunger Games. 6mo
TheIntrovertedDodoBird @Bookwormjillk I'll never make the box set mistake again, that's for sure. I read Divergent as a teenager. I remember enjoying the first novel, but DNF'd the second. I haven't read Ready Player One, though. It's read on my TBR pile forever, so I might dig it out and give it a try now that you've recommended it. Thank you! 6mo

I AM ON CHAPTER 10, WHERE YOU GUYS AT?

TheIntrovertedDodoBird I just started The Maze Runner yesterday. I'm on chapter 8. I'm not too sure if I like it yet, but I'm sticking with it for now 😊. 6mo
Girl808 Have you seen the movie? 6mo
TheIntrovertedDodoBird @Girl808 I have. On this rare occasion, I think the film is far superior to the book. I just DNF'd the series. 6mo

Girl808 That would be extremely rare. Hmmmm I seen the movie first and then read the book. Did you do it in that order? 5mo
TheIntrovertedDodoBird @Girl808 I saw the films first, too. I loved them, though admittedly, nowhere near as much as The Hunger Games. I've never thought a film adaption was superior to a book before. It's disconcerting. The portrayal of the characters felt far more palatable in the film than the book series. I hailed the bail around half way through. 5mo
Girl808 Just finished...I think the book was better. It does start off slow until Thomas go in the maze. 5mo

This is a soft pick for me. There were quite a few characters to keep up with. The world was very interesting. And the twist at the end had me a little shocked. I don't know why, because I know there is a second book. But, when people were asking me how I was liking it, I kept saying "Hunger Games was better".

Me pareció una trama súper original, además siempre me encantaron los libros de acción. Si te gusta la saga Percy Jackson y el futuro distópico seguramente te va a fascinar este libro. La historia trata sobre Thomas, un pibe que no recuerda quien es y llega a un lugar muy extraño al que llaman el Área, la cual está rodeada por un laberinto… Aunque el final me resultó muy raro, medio que te caga la historia es realmente un libro súper recomendable

The Maze Runner is a story set in a post-apocalyptic world where a group of boys are trapped in the middle of a maze with no memory of their life before the maze. The main character Thomas finds himself in the maze as the newest meme bet of the group. He strives to become a maze runner to find a way out of the maze and to freedom.

This book tripped me up. It started off boring and flat and about halfway through the book it became action packed and three d so I was starting to feel it. But the ending came and it was extremely abrupt ups and downs that all just molded into nothing. 3⭐️

There was a maze and the characters did run around, but I wasn‘t invested in the story. I never connected with any of the characters and the resolution was just a teaser for the next book. I‘m just not curious about why these boys got trapped in the glade with an ever-changing maze.

The book was about a group of boys who appear to be randomly selected, who are put into a maze with massive stone walls. Their main goal is to escape the maze, however it seems that there is more to the story.
If you like books that are exciting and fantasy, then this book is for you.
The theme of the story would be either loyalty. Throughout the book we see the gladers (boys in the maze) struggle with where their loyalty lies, some even choosing

A group of young boys (average age 15), mysteriously appear in a place they call the glade. Each boy has lost their memory completely except for their name. Surrounding the glade are four, giant, stone walls. There are openings in these walls and inside it contains a maze. The main character, Thomas, has something different about him, and after he arrives in the glade, everything starts to change.

emilysyratt If you like Y/A novels that are action heavy, this book‘s for you. This book is told in third person limited POV, because there is the inner thoughts of a character, but it‘s only one, and there are impersonal pronouns used. 3y

The Maze Runner by James Dashner is about a teenage boy named Thomas. Thomas gets sent to a mysterious maze where he has no memory of his past life. Thomas is not the only kid who was sent there. Soon after he arrived he joined the group of all of the kids and became the lead maze runner. Time goes by fighting to get out of the never changing maze and finally, they find a way out.

myahlebleu@gmail.com The theme of The Maze Runner is the key to survive which is persistence. I rate this book a 5/5 because very rarely in the book did it become confusing. It was straight forward the whole book. The book kept me intrigued and curious to what would happen next. I highly recommend this book to teenagers who love mystery and action books. Overall this book has been one of my favourite books to read, I love action and mysteries. 3y
myahlebleu@gmail.com The Maze Runner is written in third person limited. Thomas is not telling the story himself but the readers feel as if he is and feels his emotions. 3y

This one wasn't for me. I don't feel like it wasn't the right time, it really just wasn't the book I enjoyed. I am ugh! About it. I can't find the movie easily accessible yet. I don't think it's on HBO Max, Hulu, Amazon Prime (unless I rent it), or YouTubeTV. But it didn't really seem that great so... I don't know if I want to search for it harder! JuJu is not impressed!

Since I finished my other #AudioCommunte book, I decided to take a crack at #NovelWatchingCrew (#NWC) November book a bit early.... I have to say.. I am not buying in yet. It just has a lot of jargon right now but.. do I care? I am not sure I do. I am about 39% in (so usually past the point I should have DNF'd it) but... because its for a book group I might just continue it.

Butterfinger I enjoy dystopian, but this was not enjoyable. 3y

Butterfinger I did. It has been awhile. My daughter read it for a book challenge (Battle of the Books) and we read and watched the movie, but I can't remember one detail about the movie. I remember parts of the book. I think it got better when they started exploring the outside. 3y
ElizaMarie @Butterfinger I am on 63% as of this morning (been cleaning so that's been on). I feel like I am too far into DNF it (and again because it's for a group it would be better to just finish it) but... still not really loving it. It's okay. Some parts are getting somewhat interesting but.. not great! 3y

To help the boys of the Glade Thomas‘s also gets himself stung by one of the grievers to retrieve memories and help them escape the maze. 3y

I‘m only going to review them one at a time, but I‘ve finished the series. So far I‘ve only read the main trilogy, but I‘m going to start reading one of the prequels. It‘s about a boy named Thomas, who was sent to a maze, full of guys, that no one has been able to solve. The next day a girl comes, and they solve the maze. It‘s explained to them, by a group name WICKED that they are part of what they call “The Trials”. Wonderfully written, loved it

Dashner‘s work on his SF, ALA Best Fiction for Young Adults award winning novel will catch the interests of older elementary students. Thomas wakes up and finds himself in a maze with a group of teens who all, including himself, have no memory of their past. He joins them in the task of trying to find a way out of the every changing maze. This book would do well as IR.

Betrinag Reading rockets provides information on IR, and ways to foster it with students https://www.readingrockets.org/article/independent-reading UDL principle 6.1 will help students set goals for their reading, while EL strategy 29 can help students access tools that will assist their reading. #ucflae3414sp21 4y
DrSpalding Reading rockets is another high-quality resource. This could be used as a book club option but yes, independent reading of these kinds of adventurous stories could motivate and engage readers! Did you know that the author makes cameo appearances in the movies? 4y
