Rereading The Maze Runner nearly a decade later and finding out it is just as good--no--is better than the first time around is such a great feeling. 

It was incredibly fast paced, exhilarating, and so scary, I felt like screaming out loud whenever there was a griever jumpscare. 

The characters are still so lovable and I could appreciate all of the dynamics much better now. They were all young and innocent, forced to participate in a deadly experiment. Some scenes were incredibly sad.

I was supposed to be asleep hours ago but I just had to finish up the second half of the book. I couldn't put it down. Amazing 5 stars.
