The Death Cure (Maze Runner, #3)

Title:
The Death Cure

Author: 
James Dashner

Number of pages:
325

Basic description:
The third in The Maze Runner trilogy. I loved the first two books, I won't tell you too much about them because I don't want to spoil anyone's reading pleasure. All I will say is WICKED is good- Not! That won't make any sense if you haven't read the books lol.

Blurb:
Thomas knows that Wicked can't be trusted, but they say the time for lies is over, that they've collected all they can from the Trials and now must rely on the Gladers, with full memories restored, to help them with their ultimate mission. It's up to the Gladers to complete the blueprint for the cure to the Flare with a final voluntary test.

What Wicked doesn't know is that something's happened that no Trial or Variable could have foreseen. Thomas has remembered far more than they think. And he knows that he can't believe a word of what Wicked says.

The time for lies is over. But the truth is more dangerous than Thomas could ever imagine.
Will anyone survive the Death Cure?


Happy reading!
Till next time :)

                                                The Maze Runner (Maze Runner, #1)


Title:
The Maze Runner

Author: 
James Dashner

Number of pages:
371

Basic description:
This is a dystopian book which has been compared to the hunger games. It is about a boy who wakes up in a lift and doesn't remember anything but his first name. He ends up a place called the Glade where he meets a group of other boys called the Glades who know just us much as Thomas the main character does.

Blurb:
When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his first name. His memory is blank. But he’s not alone. When the lift’s doors open, Thomas finds himself surrounded by kids who welcome him to the Glade—a large, open expanse surrounded by stone walls.

Just like Thomas, the Gladers don’t know why or how they got to the Glade. All they know is that every morning the stone doors to the maze that surrounds them have opened. Every night they’ve closed tight. And every 30 days a new boy has been delivered in the lift.

Thomas was expected. But the next day, a girl is sent up—the first girl to ever arrive in the Glade. And more surprising yet is the message she delivers. 

Thomas might be more important than he could ever guess. If only he could unlock the dark secrets buried within his mind.

Happy reading!
Till next time :)

The Mercy Falls trilogy review!

       

I will be honest I did find this series hard going in places. I didn't enjoy Shiver (the first in the trilogy) as much as the other two which is unusual for a series.

The books are about a pack of werewolves who change to wolves in cold weather and do not turn back until they are warm enough which basically means they are wolves throughout winter and humans during the spring and summer. This transition continues until they have been werewolves for around 15 years then they stay wolves forever.

The main characters are Sam (a wolf) and Grace (the girl who loves him). We also meet Cole and Isabel later in the trilogy.

The book is written from the perspectives of all of the main characters. Which is very interesting but also can become confusing at times. I also would like to add that the chapters are all very short which I like as I like to stop reading at the end of a chapter.

I would give this series 3.5 stars.

Title:
Forever

Author: 
Maggie Stiefvater

Number of pages:
489

Basic description:
The third book in the Shiver trilogy. I have just read the other two and am enjoying the last one. The trilogy  is about werewolf pack and a girl obsessed with the wolves, well one wolf in particular. The romance in this book is extremely well written and believable. I will do a full review of the series when I have finished this the last installment.

Blurb:
Sam has always loved Grace. As a wolf, he watched her from afar. As a boy, he held her in his arms. 

Now facing the possibility of a life without her, he will do anything to keep her safe. Even if it means facing his demons. Even if it risks everything he has. 

Anything, as long as their love can survive...

Happy reading!
Till next time :)
