Review: The Scorch Trials by James Dashner

Title: The Scorch Trials (The Maze Runner #2)
Author: James Dashner
Published: October 12th 2010
Date Read: August 27th – 29th 2016
Read In: German

Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. No more puzzles. No more variables. And no more running.

Thomas was sure that escape meant he and the Gladers would get their lives back. But no one really knew what sort of life they were going back to.

In the Maze, life was easy. They had food, and shelter, and safety... until Teresa triggered the end. In the world outside the Maze, however, the end was triggered long ago.

Burned by sun flares and baked by a new, brutal climate, the earth is a wasteland. Government has disintegrated – and with it, order – and now Cranks, people covered in festering wounds and driven to murderous insanity by the infectious disease known as the Flare, roam the crumbling cities hunting for their next victim... and meal.

The Gladers are far from finished with running. Instead of freedom, they find themselves faced with another trial. They must cross the Scorch, the most burned-out section of the world, and arrive at a safe haven in two weeks. And WICKED has made sure to adjust the variables and stack the odds against them.

Thomas can only wonder – does he hold the secret of freedom somewhere in his mind? Or will he forever be at the mercy of WICKED?


This book wasn't as good as The Maze Runner, in the middle it was kind of boring actually. It took too long for them to go through the Scorch. But it had its good parts, we get to know more about the Flare and we meet new people. I'd recommend it for fans of The Maze Runner.

If you ain’t scared, you ain’t human.

When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his name. He’s surrounded by strangers – boys whose memories are also gone.

Nice to meet ya, shank. Welcome to the Glade.

Outside the towering stone walls that surround the Glade is a limitless, everchanging maze. It’s the only way out – and no one’s ever made it through alive.

Everything is going to change.

Then a girl arrives. The first girl ever. And the message she delivers is terrifying.

Remember. Survive. Run.

I've had this trilogy on my tbr list for a long time. But now i just couldn't resist. The Maze Runner was great, the plot and how big the maze actually was. I've never seen the movie, but i think i have to watch it now.

When they left the maze, it kind of felt like i've felt when i've finished The Hunger Games. What happens next? How is it a trilogy if they leave already? I just have to read the other books, so i'll know.

Juliette Will Not Stand Alone

in a Battle that will decide the Fate of her World...

In Destroy Me, Warner, the ruthless leader of Sector 45, refuses to let her go.

In Fracture Me, Adam, Juliette's first love, will do anything to get her back.

Ah, Warner... Destroy Me was too short! I hoped it would continue until he's held hostage at Omega Point. It would've been great to read this part in his POV.

Before i started reading Fracture Me, i was really worried i have to read about Adam who's whining about Juliette. But thank god it wasn't. When i read „(...) will do anything to get her back“ i thought it's that part when he's really bitchy towards everyone.

This book contains Juliette's journal too. It's a great idea, but since we've already read half of it, it was a little annoying. And it's really short, i thought it should be a lot more because Juliette was in the asylum for almost a year.

Review: Ignite Me by Tahereh Mafi

Title: Ignite Me (Shatter Me #3)
Author: Tahereh Mafi
Published: February 4th 2014
Date Read: August 22nd – 25th 2016
Read In: English

The Fate of Omega Point is unknown.

Everyone Juliette has ever cared about could be dead. Juliette may be the only one standing in The Reestablishment's way.

But to take them down, Juliette will need the help of the one person she never thought she could trust: Warner.

And as they work together to defeat their mutual enemy, Juliette will discover that everything she thought she knew – about Warner, her abilities, and even Adam – was wrong.

This book made me ship Juliette and Warner, and while reading i always thought if she doesn't end up with Warner i'm going to scream.

Juliette gets to know Warner more and more in this book and she starts to trust him. And Adam is a stupid idiot in this book. I really liked him in Shatter Me, but that started to change soon. In both Unravel Me and Ignite Me he wants Juliette to stay the same little helpless girl she's been, even though there's war and she needs to fight.

About the ending of this book, i'm not sure. I thought it was ok, but it didn't felt like a real ending. It's more like the author could write more books about this. But still, i liked this book a lot.

Our Lips Touch

and I know I'm going to split at the seams.

He kisses me softly then strongly like he's lost me and he's found me and I'm slipping away and he's never going to let me go.

Juliette has escaped from The Reestablishment. Now she's free from their plan to use her as a weapon, and free to love Adam. But Juliette will never be free from her lethal touch. Or from Warner, who wants Juliette more than she ever thought possible. Haunted by her past and terrified of her future, Juliette knows that she will have to make some life-changing choices. Choices that may involve choosing between her heart – and Adam's life.
This book just started like Shatter Me has been, Adam here and Adam there. But it changed soon, thank god. Juliette started to grow up a bit, there weren't so many paragraphs and sentences striked out. And she started to change, she started to accept her gift. She wasn't such a crybaby and she started to train.

Warner changed, too. I even thought he wasn't even like himself anymore, he seemed so different in Shatter Me. Of course he said he's always been like that and he just tricked Juliette, but while reading Unravel Me it still felt like the author made up a whole new person. At least he was a lot more likeable this way.

August Book Haul.
