The Scorch Trials by James Dashner
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The only problem I had with reading this now is that I have to wait a long time for the next one in the series. I am seriously hooked on the characters and the plot to this series.
This was a fast read, but definitely not short on action or suspense. I liked the new character additions and the twists of whom Thomas should or could trust.
I am still guessing as to the purpose and ethical merits (or lack thereof) of the WICKED group, and that also helps to keep me intrigued.
Finally, I liked how this one took the story to someplace completely different (sorry Hunger Games – you just keep going back to the same thing) so that it did not feel like a re-hashing of the same story.
