Title: The Scorch Trials Author: James Dashner Series: The Maze Runner (book 2) Publisher: Chicken House Ltd Release Date: 5 Jun. 2014 ISBN: 9781909489417 Synopsis Solving the Maze was supposed to be the end. No more puzzles. And no more running. Thomas was sure that escaping meant he would get his life back. But no one knew what sort of a life they were going back to...

I was recently kind of challenged by someone to read a classic that I've never read; The Little Prince. This is a book I've meant to read, and heard a lot about, but I just never seemed to "get around to it." So, with the extra incentive of a challenge thrown down I decided to check the book out from my library and give it a go.
For those of you that don't know The Little Prince is the story of a little prince who leaves his planet and explores the universe. He is found on Earth by a pilot whose plane has crashed in the desert. I will say that I was prepared not to like the book because it is so hyped by people, and I often don't like things that are overly hyped *cough*Avatar*cough*. But, to my astonishment I did find The Little Prince to be charming and enjoyable. Some of it was a little too precocious, but I think that many of us could do to be reminded of the simple joys and thoughts of childhood, and how loving a single rose can make all the difference to a little prince.
