I've heard
lots about this book even before the movie came out (the movie was awesome by
the way). Many friends have said it was a good book others say it was amazing.
So I decided to check it out myself. I bought the book and I wanted to grasp
every single detail in the book and not rush into it, it was worth the wait. I
love the author’s creativity the maze theme. It was unique and graves my
attention the minute I started reading. It reminded me of the book "Lord
of the Flies" because in both books groups of boys had to work together to
survive in a strange place. I give this book 4 stars and a half because it was
really well written and he described every single aspect in the book in perfect
detail. I recommend this book for ages 13 and up because there's lots of
violence.
I have heard a lot about the book and the movie, I havet watched the movie yet but somehow and someway this post made me want to read the book first. I love the detail you use and how you ended the post with a kind of cliffhanging question! That really caught my attention! Great job Noor!
ReplyDeleteI have seen the movie about this book and it was very good. My two favorite things in the world are mazes and running. This book was too perfect for me. I personally like the movie over the book but both were very fun to watch and experience. What do you think Nour?
ReplyDeleteHello again Chris and thanks again for reading my blog and commenting. Personally I loved the book better, it’s just something that has always been a favorite of mine. But I’m not saying that the movie sucked, it was actually amazing and with Dylan O'Brian as the lead it was hard not to miss.
