WOW! This book was great!!! People who liked "The Maze Runner" by James Dashner will love this book (like I did)!!!! Man, what a MEAN cliffhanger >:( Gosh, I cannot wait for the next book! This book has loads of twists and turns, and I was glued to the pages! 
 So it starts off with Benson Fisher, a 17 year old guy who's been pretty abandoned his life. He has moved from foster homes his entire life, so he hasn't made any friends & is always "the new kid". He thinks this will change when he gets a scholarship to Maxfield Academy, a boarding school in the middle of nowhere. Soon he figures there is something off about this school. First, there are no adults (except for the one who drove him there); it clearly isn't a normal school. Instead of having grade levels like freshmen, sophomore, etc, there are three "gangs": Society, Havoc, and Variant (or the V's). Everyone has a job (for example, Havoc has a contract for cafeteria and groundskeeping, so each member of Havoc is assigned a job that deals with that), and Benson is craving to get out. However, there are rules--and if broken, you're punished (the worst being detention, which no one has ever come back from). No one has ever escaped, making Benson fear that he can't either....
