One day to go! It’s the 9th of October – Which means that tomorrow The Maze Runner is officially released in the UK! Today’s blog post is an exciting blog tour one, celebrating the movie’s release.
I read The Maze Runner at the beginning of 2013, and I loved every fast-paced, thrilling second of it. It was such a great book! I loved the mysterious world of the Glade – it interested and terrified me (as did the rest of the trilogy later on in the year…). The main thing I loved about the book, though, was all of the characters. Thomas was such a great protagonist, and I loved reading about the Lord of the Flies-esque community of Gladers too. You can read my review from last year by clicking here.
I can’t wait to see the book brought to life on the big screen. I’m a little nervous because so many YA novels are being adapted – but I’m a big Teen Wolf fan and love Dylan O’Brien’s acting in that… I think he’ll make a brilliant Thomas!:D View the trailer for the movie by clicking here, if you haven’t seen it yet! It looks awesome and the Glade is exactly the way I imagined it when I read it.

Oh man, I loved The Maze Runner. And The Scorch Trials. And The Death Cure. I think I’m one of the few who loved the entire trilogy. As for my favourite character, it’s been a while since I’ve read the books, but I think I’m gonna go with Newt. He was lovely.
I haven’t read it but I love YA dystopias! I’d love to win it so I can review it on my new BookTube channel.
fab book review, can’t wait to see the film
I’d like to read it because I enjoy dystopian fiction
i read this book so long ago and remember it being a great read but would love to have the signed novel.
I’d really love to win The Maze Runner because I haven’t read it yet and I want to go watch the movie after I’ve read the book and I’ve been told that the books are so cool, so I just really want to read it now!
Oh My God!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I loved this Book!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I will Basically be Re-reading it until my obsession fades (which will be in like 5-10 years maybe forever?)
i have read them all and cannot wait to see the movie, it looks exactly how i imagined it would be. my favourite character is Thomas of course
I haven’t read it but have seen lots of blog posts and reviews – I really liked the Hunger Games trilogy so hopefully I would like this too
