Summary:

It all starts in an elevator. That’s where Thomas, the main character, wakes up. When the elevator opens, he finds himself in a place called The Glade. Every month for two years, a boy has come in the elevator, each one remembering only the essentials, nothing from their previous lives. Thomas means that The Glade is in the middle of a giant maze, one that the boys have been studying for the past two years and still have not found an exit for. Dangerous things live in the maze, evil, deadly things.

Days later, the first girl ever to enter The Glade comes up in the elevator and tells them that everthing is about to change. The change means that their lives depend on finding a way out of the maze. The question is, should they try to leave? Will it be any better on the outside? Will anyone be able to get out of the maze alive? Find out in The Maze Runner, the first book of The Maze Runner trilogy.

The story is told by Thomas.

Rating: I would give this book a 5/5 stars, because it was very suspenseful and I couldn’t put it down. It had a really good plot and I enjoyed it a lot. I think any kind of person could read this book.

Favorite Part: My favorite part is at the end, so I cannot tell what it is, you’ll have to see.

Series: The Maze Runner Trilogy
