Pages Read: Finished. My eyes are ruined, but finished.
The gladers created a vocabulary, I'm using it. That's how much I'm into this book.
This book, actually, this trilogy is just so amazing. I don't think I'll be successful in saying why, but I'll try. I will utterly fail in doing so, but I will try. This book, makes you relate to the characters, makes you actually get to know them, even better then Rick Riordan! I found myself a new favorite author! He makes you create an opinion on the characters. He makes you feel as if the characters are real and you've been through tough times. It just feels, by reading, it feels like it's real. Like you've went and had that experience, all those hardships, all that fear. There was one part in the book where Teresa, the shucky female lead, had to "betray" Thomas. I just can't explain it in words. When I didn't know that Teresa wasn't being forced to do these things to Thomas, I hated her. I really did hate her. You just tore his heart out of his chest, and started gnawing on it while beating him up, barbarically with a spear! Even as of right now, I still, REALLY hate Teresa. She did so many things that weren't necessary! She was only ordered to take Thomas into that place, not beat him up and play with his shucking heart!
I took a break.
Look shuck-face. Teresa... you shucky shuck-faced shucker. He trusted you! HE SHUCKING TRUSTED YOU! You shucking made him go through all of that, and you still, you shucking ssstttiiilll, try acting like you guys are best friends.
Another break.
I could practically beg, I could do dogeza (Japanese term. Time for you to use Google) to make James Dashner do something horrible happen to Teresa. Better yet, have Thomas do something horrible to Teresa. Break her heart then kill her and everyone she cares about? I'm just full of wonderful ideas today! Ha. But really, I actually really want that to happen. I hate Teresa. I hate Teresa with a passion. A shucky passion.
I finished the third book.
Wow... I said that? Really??? I feel pretty bad now... Teresa isn't that much of a bad guy. So come back... Come back please...
Leave me to my misery.
The author, he created the scenes where Teresa destroyed Thomas' heart really visually. In moments like these, climaxes in their own way, he doesn't rush through it. He takes his time, letting the reader know exactly how shuck went down. He explains every single action in the eyes of Thomas. He doesn't explain everything, he only explains details in Thomas' eyes. He states such things like, "Something hit me... Hard." Thomas' information is limited, he only knows what he knows. In that example, he doesn't know what hit him, he only knows that something hit him.
In this first-person kind of view, it gets you thinking about what you would do if you were in that situation. Thomas is how most people would react in the situations he was in. It gives you a feeling of relation because it makes you feel as if you're in the story. You're the one interacting with other characters, you're the one that's feeling pain, you're the one that just killed your best friend. Those feelings, they feel real. They feel like it's yours. You might not like them, but it gets you wanting more.
