I finished The Scorch Trials on Monday, August 1st. It is the second book to The Maze Runner by James Dashner.
"Rose took my nose, I suppose"
This book left me emotionally drained. Mr. Dashner toyed with my emotions – especially towards the end of the book.
This books starts where the group has to go through another “trial.” This book documents their journey into what used to be Mexico. They have to make it to a certain area within two weeks.
They have to deal with the sun (which is so bright and hot that they have to stay covered or they will blister), the cranks, lightning that is beyond dangerous, and more man made monsters. Will they make it to their destination or will they all die during the treacherous journey?
I do not want to reveal too much but I imagine this would be a fantastic movie. The twist and turns in this book will make you want to hurry up and finish the book!
I almost quit reading 80% through the book I got so upset with how he took Thomas and Teresa's relationship! I had no idea that one character would act a certain way! Fortunately, about three chapters later, my happiness was restored – but then it was taken away with another twist. Do not let me being upset fool ya – I loved this book!
"He didn't care about the others anymore. The chaos around him seemed to siphon away his humanity, turn him into an animal. All he wanted was to survive, make it to that building, get inside. Live. Gain another day."

Dystopia at its finest!
The script has been shopped around – that was cited from an article in December of 2009. I don’t know if it is still being shopped or if it has been shot down.
The Death Cure comes out October 11, 2011...yessss!

"Anybody else wanna pee their pants and cry for mommy?"
So I have officially not been reading enough lately - I haven't heard of any of these books, much less read them! I would probably get really frustrated with the relationship too - I did that with the second Twilight book... oh my gracious made me so angry, haha!
