I went through up's and down's with loving and being eh with this book. The story is about teenagers who are placed in the center of a maze with no knowledge of their past life. Their only goal and purpose in life at this moment is to learn the maze in order to get out. The world building, plot, and storyline were all really fascinating and are what kept me intrigued. The creators have placed these teenagers in the Maze with the goal of them helping the outside world somehow? That I don't get or understand just yet. That's what's going to keep me intrigued and keep me reading this series. Plus the fact that Dylan O'Brien (sp?) from Teen Wolf is playing Thomas in the movie (HOT DAMN!). 
 Thomas though he's the greenie turns out to be a great leader. I'm assuming that's who they talk about in the epilogue? I wish the escape encompassed more of the book and they would all just answer everyone questions in this series. It's as though anytime someone has a question the answer is to just shut up and wait to learn it. The lack of information and secrecy really annoyed me. & I don't have a really bond with any of the characters yet...I'm really just in this series to find out what's going on in the world and what The Flare is and how to cure it!
