I read the book "The Maze Runner" by the author James Dashner. I think this book was great to read because of the action. The main character is Thomas, who wakes up in a kind of lift without memory of his life the only thing he remember is his name. He finds himself in a giant square surrounded by a maze called the glade. The young boys that live there tell him that they have not found a way out in 3 years. the maze changes every night and is filled with half animal half machine monsters called Grievers. A new glader is supposed to come every month but that changes when a girl comes in the box with a note that says, "she's the last one, ever." The gladers are worried because of the supplies and because they thing Thomas has something to do with the weird things that are happening. Thomas then is trapped in the maze overnight and survives with two other boys, then he becomes a runner that needs to explore the maze and come back before the walls close. Thomas with the help of another runner named Minho, and Teresa, the new girl, finds a way out by a secret code and helps them escape.

My opinion of the story is that it was sad because the characters were not confident. They didn't trust themselves, which caused actions to not be made. This caused a boring plot. They didn't talk about the characters much and did skips that didnt feel in a good sequence. On this response I will say why I think this. This story feels sad because the characters didn't do anything together. That caused that relationship with so much potential to didn't progress. Also because the girl got another boy but never forgot the checkouts boy. The girl was so shy that she couldnt even go to the boys checkout line. If they would have even talked once their relationship would have progressed. Because any of the characters didn't do anything interesting, and because their shyness never let the reveal their feelings or express themselves. This caused the story to be somehow boring almost all the time, as they didn't carry out anything. This means that the Story has an incomplete plot, it is missing the climax, because real action is never made. My conclusion is that this story was boring and sad. I think this because the characters were static almost at all times and didn't change everything, they were locked and shy, so they never revealed their feelings, so the story was incomplete and no action was ever done. |
