~♥Febloguray Day Three - Favorite Book♥~

Recently I just finished the trilogy called "Maze Runner". (Late I know :p) For those of you who haven't heard of it, the series was created by James Dashner and is about a group of boys who are trapped in a huge maze. However in reality, this maze is keeping them safe from the outside world where sun flares struck and changed the global climate. Thomas is the main protagonist in the series who joins the pack as one of the last kids who basically helps them escape. They have all been wiped of their memory to which Thomas promises to help them discover again.
It is an action packed book that is recommended mainly for teens. Where ever they go there always seems to be a bigger problem then the one they are facing.
Will they be able to find the paradise they've been seeking?

After reading the series I picked up the prequel for it! "The Kill Order," takes place 13 years before the actual series begins. It focuses on when the sun flares first originally took place and events that occurred following it like the creation of WICKED. When you first open the book, the characters are completely different than in the series, however, it basically has the same theme of the whole collection: survival. It was so mind-blowing to know detailed background information to which the series did not provide. 
Overall I rate the "Maze Runner Series" a ⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆/⋆⋆⋆⋆⋆ :). Even though the book was fiction, it reminds me of my own thought process. I like to add conflicts on top of my existing conflicts in order to make things more entertain-able. 
Mind as well live life to the fullest right? And remember WICKED is Good.
