Actually, I lied. I've only read the first book. Around when it first came out... But I did love it!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

Actually, I could give up a couple days of Altera to knock 'em out, but generally, that is very funny to me.

Well, I understand that for some people it's hard to find free time *cough*

What's it about?

What's it about?

Here's the summary:

When Thomas wakes up in the lift, the only thing he can remember is his first name. 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, open expanse surrounded 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 the stone doors to the maze that surrounds them have opened. Every night they’ve closed tight. And every 30 days a new boy has been delivered in the lift. Thomas was expected. But the next day, a girl is sent up—the first girl to ever arrive in the Glade. And more surprising yet is the message she delivers. Thomas might be more important than he could ever guess. If only he could unlock the dark secrets buried within his mind.

Just out of curiosity, what parts were confusing to you?

EDIT: I think the reason I like certain books a lot is because I can relate to the characters, maybe that's why I think they're so good. :F

Well, the underlying plot device which was why they were in the maze, along with the causes of said plot device.

So it's like a reverse Hunger Games? *did not like first book in that one until entire trilogy had been read*

No, like a regular Hunger Games. The last book in the series was an embarrassment.
