The Maze Runner Series Of Books

As a kid, I was always really shy and spent much of my free time reading books. In 4th grade, the teacher required that each month we read a certain amount of short stories or books and write a summary for each. I always completed the minimum requirement and read plenty extra books. Throughout the year, I always had the most stars next to my name for top reader, not because I wanted to collect as many gold stars as I could, but because I really enjoyed reading. I had my eyes glued to a book even when I was at home. I

The title The Death Cure, seems almost oxymoronic, falsely true. From the first book, The Maze Runner, it seems like WICKED is desperately searching for a cure that could possibly prevent the extinction of the human race from the Flare. Mainly, The Death Cure is focusing on the cure to the disease. But as we read on, it seems like there was never a cure, but death. The cure looks like it could be letting everyone who has been infected, die while the immunes get to start over. WICKED should have been searching for a way to stop the spread of the disease instead of finding a cure for death, which has been their main problem.

There are actually quite of few books that I have enjoyed reading, most of them being lower reading level sports books. Although I liked those books I could never bring myself to read them outside of school, that's just the type of relationship I have with reading. It’s not that I don’t like reading but if I’m not required to read something chances are I won’t. I do think as I’m getting

As a child, I read non-stop. I used to spend entire nights reading, so much so that by the age of 9, I had developed grey circles under my eyes, which I wore like a badge. In school, I would use every free second I had to get just a little closer to finishing whatever book I had on hand. Ms. Carpenter, who always seemed as though she didn’t like teaching very much, frequently yelled at me for keeping my books on my desk so I could get to them quicker whenever I finished my classwork. She insisted that they were a distraction. But I always had a book to read, because every Friday each class walked in a neat line

My Husband knows about my Harry Potter (almost) obsession and does not miss a chance to give me a hard time about it. I could read Harry Potter over and over again without getting bored. I also enjoy my Twilights and Hunger Games. I favor series because it allows me to make more of a connection with the characters. Knowing they have another adventure once I finish the last page gets me excited. When I was younger I read more of a variety mystery, western, and horror. As I get older I find myself going back to comfort, and that is why I reread my favorites. Going to college, working two jobs, spending time with my family, and as of recently considering being a foster parent has not left me time for pleasure reading. That is why I spend any time I do have reading novels I know I enjoy. I hope after graduating that I will have more time to expand the literature I

I couldn’t stop and this was enhanced by Hooked on Phonics, which was required in the third grade. We were studying dinosaurs and I was so excited to learn about them, that I read all the books I could get my hands on. As each year passed, my level of reading increased and by the 4th grade I was reading novels and books to my favorite movies. In addition to this, my folks bought me a series of books like 20,000 Leagues under the Sea and Moby Dick. Also, some of my favorite books were Star Wars and Star Trek novels that were new releases at the time. At this point in my life, I had forgotten all about the challenges I had experienced when I was younger and never looked

When I was a younger I don’t remember if I was read to or not, but I read a lot of books. I enjoy reading books because they allow me to reach new heights in my imagination. At my age many kids say that reading is boring and is for losers. I think it’s cool to read and will continue to read throughout my life. I have read many different types of books from fiction to biographies. The longest book I ever read was a book called Dragon Rider by Cornella Funke. It was five hundred and thirty five pages! When it comes to reading I am a superstar! When I’m reading I am able to get a moral lesson from what I read, so it ends up helping me in the long run of my life

During our recent winter break, I started reading as many novels, novellas, and biographies that piqued my interest. Once I sat down, curled up on the couch, I would start a story and wouldn’t stop reading until I was done, whether the book was 80 pages or 573 pages. Even if the book was horrible, I would still finish what I started. Although I’m concentrating on college and succeeding, I’m falling in love with reading again. Just during our winter break, I read over fifty novels, biographies, and novellas ranging from science fiction, paranormal romance, history, and classical horror

The Maze Runner begins with a young boy, Thomas, starting his new life in an elevator. Thomas has no memory of his life prior to this moment. In his mind he could see things, and he knew things, but he did not know where he was, or where he came from. His life was a mystery. When the elevator doors finally open, Thomas finds himself standing in a glade surrounded by walls. There are several other boys, who like Thomas, do not know where they came from. All the young boys knew were what their names were. These boys, who have no memory of their lives prior to entering the Glade, pull Thomas into the Glade. Thomas quickly discovers that the Glade is like a farm. The farm is run by Alby and Newt. Alby and Newt are two boys who control everything and everyone in the Glade. They force all the boys to do farm work while at the Glade. Alby and Newt are very mean to the boys, and force all of the boys to adhere to a strict set of rules. Thomas discovers that outside the Glade is a maze with deadly creatures called grievers, and they must find a way out of the maze. In the group of boys in the Glade, there is a group of runners. The runners are the ones who go

In a futuristic world technology rules all. A fully immersive mind-body experience that is almost exactly like real life becomes the epitome of gaming. The hypnotic almost addicting experience captures the time and money of the majority of citizens in this futuristic world. Then the games became much too legitimate. People rising up from the "sleep" brain dead. Others obliterating their core, causing suicide. No one knew why any of this was happening except for who was behind it. Kaine, a high tech all-powerful tangent gave himself the authority to take control of the virtual world and create a program that inserts tangent intelligence into human bodies. The Mortality Doctrine. Michel a tangent, was an innocent victim of this operation, he

Maze Runner is a great book. Some of the main characters in this book are Thomas, Theresa, Mihno, Gally, Albert, and Isaac. This book is really interesting. The setting in the book is the same as the setting in the movie. They call it the "Glade". The glade is like a big field and it's on the inside of the walls. The walls are what lead into the maze.

My reading experiences have always been enjoyable. I love to read when I find an interesting book. It’s easy for me to be sucked into a book if the story catches my eye. I mostly like to read teen romance novels. They appeal to me simply because of my interest in a love story. My parents hate buying me books because they know I’ll be finished reading within a week or so. Reading has always been really easy to me. It seems almost natural to be sucked into other worlds. The words start to flow over the pages and suddenly it feels like I’m not even reading anymore. Unless I have to read a book for school or it doesn’t catch my attention, I might have a hard time bringing myself to read it.

At this point in my life, reading would definitely not make a list of my favorite things to do, but this wasn’t always the case. Some of my youngest memories involve reading, and many of these memories are enjoyable. Every night before bed my mom would read to me, and I remember begging to read just one more before she tucked me in almost every night. This is when my love for reading sparked. Throughout grade school, I continued to read frequently and never found it to be a chore; however, once middle school hit I no longer included reading as a past time or found it pleasurable. Looking back now I realize this was when English class included more forced literature, and school consisted of reading extensive pages in textbooks. Reading

As a child, my interests were more focused on reading than writing. In elementary school I fell in love with books. Initially I read simple children’s books, much like everybody else in my class, but it did not take long for my passion to drive me to read more difficult writings. Fiction books quickly became a replacement for any childhood toys. Instead of blocks or stuffed animals I would ask my parents for books. Since they were aimed at young readers, they tended to be short. I found myself going through them within days, and then soon several hours. Towards the end of elementary school I was reading series like Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events. I was captivated, and reading truly opened up a whole new world for me.

The beginning of my interest in reading goes way back, although I don’t have any defining “aha!” moment, where I all of a sudden enjoyed reading books. There were always books around when I was growing up, if I was at my grandparents house it was the books they kept from their youth; classics like Treasure Island or any Hemingway book, the hard covers permanently infused with dust; plenty of History books, particularly World War II history; and the children’s books I always received as presents when I visited. My mom also read a lot, but more modern books, like supernatural or light horror books, nothing too difficult (or scary). I spent a lot of time reading magazines, mostly Video Game (note: spent more time creating stories off the
