YA Book Club! discussion

Here you can talk about anything to do with The Maze Runner.

Has anyone read this? If so is it good? I'm debating whether or not to read it.

I tried to read it, but I couldn't really get into it.

I haven't read it, but some of my friends don't like it, but others love it. I'm torn between reading it and not reading it.

Tell me whether or not you like it so I know if I should read it.

I have it on my ibooks and i'm looking forward to reading it :) i've watched the trailer for the movie so I think it'll be pretty good

I haven't watched the trailer yet. I don't want to watch until after I read the book, if I do read it.

Even though I havent read it I would recommend it

Ok thanks. I think I'll probably read it this summer then.

i'm reading it, it's really good.

That's cool.

Yeah I know how that feels :/"

me 2!

I've just finished the series. The plot was good and there were some really good characters. Book 1's frustrating because so much is unknown which annoys Thomas and us as the readers. Also in first book he repeats things a bit but other than that I really enjoyed it (4 stars). My favourite was The Scorch Trials (book 2) as they knew what they were doing and so Thomas wasn't constantly whining about how nothing made sense. It also took some twist and turns that I didn't expect. A solid 5 stars for me. Book 3, the death cure was a constant page turner I've just finished it and I only started yesterday. I really enjoyed it but it didn't provide closure at the end and I'm still curious/confused about how things happened. I know there's a prequel so that probably explains it. For me it was definitely worth the read. If you liked the hunger games or just the dystopian genre in general I would say you'd probably enjoy the maze runner. Hope that helped.

It definitely helped it sounds really good.

Hope you enjoy it if you decide to read it :)

I'm planning on reading it in June or sooner if I can get it.

I wonder what happened to the dog, Bark. He wasn't mentioned after that first time.

OMG the maze runner is aamazing. But I think the scorch trials (the second book) is even better. A whole bunch of unexpected things happen. I love it.

I read the Maze Runner and I'm half way through the Scorch Trials. It is amazing!! It's one of my new favorite series.

I might read the maze runner, since lots of people like it. Though, quite a few people don't…

I loved them they are amazing!!!!! You should read them Julie!

the series was so amazing. I can't wait to watch the movie!!!

So I decided I would read the Maze Runner after I finish the Darkest Minds and City of Heavenly Fire.

GREAT choice Julie!

You will love them!!

Yes, I'm getting excited! :D

You should!

Cool! :D

I think I'll be reading this soon since I'm catching up on my reading: I went to Ottawa for a week and didn't read at all.

Why not? :(

I didn't have any time; we were on a really tight schedule.

Though I'm reading it after I finish Evertrue (I'm currently reading it)! :D

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it!

So I've heard

Im currently reading it!

It's really good!!

Yes, so far, I think so too! ;)

That's awesome. I finally convinced my sister to read it and she loves it too now.

Ya. She doesn't appreciate books as much as I do.

It's very sad

I third that.
Also, one of my (kind of) friends refuses to read outside of things we read in class.:(

I tried to read it a few years back, but I never really got into it. Thinking of trying again, but after reading loads of mixed reviews I'm not sure.

Yeah, I tried it a while ago, and I got 2 chapters in and I got bored, but I'm trying it again right now, and I'm having different thoughts (positive ones). ;)

The beginning isn't really that good but after you get into it, it gets AMAZING!!!

Yeah, that's why so many people don't continue reading after the first few chapters.

YES!!!!
