Being book two of The Maze Runner Series. Since I've seen the movie
based on book one it's hard to read this without picturing Dylan
O'Brien as Thomas and Ki Hong Lee as Minho in his runner harness
looking oh so brawny. The 370-page book has 65 brief chapters that
give the story a choppy episodic nature. The trilogy extends to over
1000 pages.
I read book one in the series to see what all the fuss was about
before watching the movie version in part because I knew Dylan
O'Brien from Teen Wolf. Book two comes off as overly wordy, even
turgid. I can't get sufficiently interested in it to spend the time
to finish reading it. I would also note that inventing words to
replace profanity I would not be allowed to use in an Amazon review
is still swearing, it just sounds more awkward.
