Just picked up this book today and I'm excited to read it. It was written by James Dashner, an lds author. Wish I could give you a review, but instead I will give you the blurb from the book and then retreat into my happy place to read.
"When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his first name. He has no recollection of his parents, his home, or how he got where he is. 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 expanse enclosed 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, for as long as anyone can remember, the stone doors to the maze that surrounds them have opened. Ever night, for just as long, they've closed tight. Every thirty days a new boy is delivered in the lift. And no one wants to be stuck in the Maze after dark."
Tell me that doesn't sound awesome! I'm excited. Okay, time to read. :)
I've heard great things about this book. I've only read the first few chapters on his website. Can't wait to read it!
