I am thinking of starting to read Maze Runner, as one of my friends recommended it for me.Given that Maze runner is one of the most popular books out there, there must be some who have read it. What do you guys think? Should I read it? What's it about?

Okay, so read the series and I didn't like it.
It's well written and it's a good series and everything, but I just thought it was really ~grim and awful.
If you're into depressos though, go for it!

Getting stuck into the second book of the Tomorrow series, The Dead of Night and man, the way they describe deaths in this book is... vivid...

I know right! Really, really enjoyed reading that series!

At the moment I'm reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" (for school) but the language use has been really, really fun!

I'm also reading "The Bogan Mondrain". I've read about 50 pages, and the story has been a little slow so far. I've heard it gets better and so I'm holding on.

Funnily enough, I'm reading to Kill a Mockingbird at the moment, too! (For fun aha)

Also starting on the Nevernight Chronicles, in time for the release of book 3!

I'm about four-fifths of the way through Plots and Prayers: Malcolm Turnbull's Demise and Scott Morrison's Ascension by Niki Savva. Absolutely loving it.

Currently reading The Third Day, The Frost and the best thing happened. In my roll class, there is this tub of books that I never paid attention to. I ruffled through it and found 4 hard-copy books from the Tomorrow series! There were about 6 holds on the first copy returned of one book in the libraries, so I'm stoked ;D

I finished Catcher Telling Crow fairly recently. It was a really wonderful book, harrowing but incredible. And an interesting premise.
