This book was not exactly what I had anticipated, although it did brought some things to the table that I expected it to. I was a bit skeptical at first, because it had fewer pages than the other two books and even though that doesn't define a book as good or bad, I thought that the finale instalment in a series should be a bigger book, as there are so many questions that need to be answered! ❇
First, I want to talk about Thomas and how much I disliked him in that book. And not for what he did to Newt, that is something that I can respect and understand, as his friend's request. I think a love triangle was a bit forced to us, since Thomas was between Brenda and Teresa ALL the time! In my opinion, he abandoned Teresa so easily and his excuse was that she betrayed him, when she told him more than a million times that what she did was a frickin' test from Wicked! He forgot about their Bond and how close they supposedly we're, even if he didn't have his memories, and he run off with a girl that was put in his path by Wicked and was pretending to be a Crank since day one! He cannot believe and trust Teresa after everything she said and after everything they went through together, but he can easily trust Brenda with his life, a minute after she told him that Wicked is her worst enemy. Yes, right... I don't know, I think Thomas could have done so so much better in levels of maturity and character judgment. ❇
Generally, the book didn't do what I was expecting it to do. I wanted my questions answered, some information about how Thomas and Teresa ended up making the maze, explanation about Chancellor Paige, etc! I mean, after they went through the Flat Trans in the end, what are they supposed to do now? Reproduce to restore Earth's population with Immune people??? Anyway, I really like the way J.Dashner writes, he has the power to capture your interest and hold it till the last page, but I just wanted more from this book.
