James Dashner's The Maze Runner: A Review by Miles!

The Maze Runner is a fast paced book with many secrets along the way.  The name of the protagonist is Thomas, a boy about 16 years old who wakes up in an elevator with no memories except his name.  When the elevator comes up, he finds himself in front of fifty boys, all around his age.  He eventually finds out he is in a giant maze that changes every night.  Each month, a new kid comes in the elevator; always a boy.  But the next day a girl comes up, throwing everything into chaos.  Thomas and his new friends now have a limited amount of time to make it out of the maze, before they are all killed.  One thing I liked about this book was all the secrets that still go un-answered in book two.  You might light this book if you enjoy action and adventure, and the Divergent  and Hunger Games series.
