I was immediately dragged back into this story! I had the "here we go again" feeling, like many of the characters in the story, but I did enjoy the journey while continuing to wonder: "What the heck is going on!?" just like while I was reading The Maze Runner. And now I look forward to reading book three, The Death Cure, which will be coming out later this year!
Reading this actually feels a lot like watching the TV show Lost:
* Changing leaders
* Mysterious but intriguing clues to never-sure-what
* Romantic triangles
* Never sure who the good guys are
* Never sure who is actually manipulating the events
* Mysterious technology
* A world that doesn't react like you expect
* Worry if the ending will be good enough
* Worry if the ending will give answers to all my questions!

LOL. Thanks, Philip! I'm just trying to do my part to spread awareness of good books and good TV shows. :)
Do you mean about The Scorch Trials being like Lost? I thought about it a lot while I was reading the book. I still need to get to The Death Cure, though!

No, sadly there is only one copy of it at my library and someone has it due soon, i hope to get it then.
I'm on hold for it at my library as well. Just saw that a prequel to the series is coming out soon: The Kill Order. Looks interesting!

Color me loser.
I'm clicking "like" because I think you're a fabulous goodreader and I saw the word "LOST" as I tried to avert my eyes. ...Way to try to drag me in, Luann... way to try to drag me in...
