The Maze Runner, by James Dashner – 289 pages (I was on page 85 as of June 1st, and the book has a total of 374 pages. So, 374 – 85= 289 pages. That OK?)

REVIEW of The Maze Runner: This book was seriously awesome! I almost NEVER finish books quickly, but this was an exception. The plot was great, and I didn’t-want-to/couldn’t put it down. Seriously. This book is kind-of a mix between The Lord of the Flies and The Hunger Games. So, yeah, I would recommend it. But, a warning: there isn’t “language” in this book, but at the same time, there is. The author made up fake cuss words to replace (I’m assuming) real cuss words. So, just a warning… good luck to everyone!

Narnia365, subtracting pages completed before the Read-a-Thon is fine.
