The Death Cure 9 Copy Floor Display by James DashnerMy rating: 3 of 5 stars
First I want to say that this is from my TBR pile, so fits into my TBR Reading Challenge. I lucked out and got this book on Black Friday. The bookstore I work at opened at midnight to have special sales, and this was one of several teen books that they had for 50% off! 20% better than my employee discount, and so I couldn't pass it up. Now if only I could find my ARC of the first book in the series. :-) This will also fit into my A-Z Reading Challenge as my D book.
I think this was a good follow up/conclusion to the Maze Runner series. It had lots of suspense and action. We got to see almost all the characters again, and see how they ended up. We got some more information on why the gladers were chosen, about being immune to the Flare, etc. I wish we'd had more time with Teresa, still not sure how I feel about her. Also, without giving anything away, I wish we'd been able to get Thomas's memories back and know more about what happened. The good thing is that there is supposed to be a prequel, and I'm looking forward to reading that and hopefully learning all the things that are still stuck in my mind. I purchased a copy of the book that had some "classified" documents in the back, and so I believe that probably gave a little hint to what will be in the prequel and what happened before we jumped right into the middle of the story in Maze Runner. As I said, a good read, I'm sure most people who enjoy this series will be satisfied with how it ended.
I apologize for my kind of quick and short review, it was really good, but I had a couple egalleys and ARCs sitting in my house that I got AFTER I started this, and so I've been chomping at the bit to get started on those. But I didn't want to quit this and go back later, I wanted to see it all the way through.
