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... Burned and baked, the earth is a wasteland, its people driven mad by an infection known as the Flare. Instead of freedom, Thomas must face another trial. He must cross the Scorch to once again save himself and his friends. My Review I enjoyed Maze Runner overall but had a few reservations, but I was intrigued to find out more so started to read Scorch Trials. The Gladers are out of the maze, but it's not the comforting end they hoped for, instead the experiments continue, but on a much larger and more dangerous scale. Thomas and his friends must once more band together to try and overcome all the trials an...
Growing up I thought I would be a teacher, an artist, or maybe an engineer like my father. I had friends who were writers, but I never figured that as a career for me. I love books, and have loved reading since I was a child, but I was never big on writing stories of my own.
At 34, I still don't think I will have a career as an author, but I do believe I have become a writer. I have been published in VOYA magazine and in an academic journal. I am a featured writer on Public Libraries Online. And almost anytime I get a chance to write for something I jump at it. I love to write papers for class, and I guess I just really do enjoy writing. Hopefully I will continue to have opportunities to be published, and I can continue to write online as well. My husband knows for sure that I have a lot to say, so writing gives me a way to keep on saying it without talking his ear off lol.
Another title that I can claim, that I'd have never thought of when I was younger, is runner. I am not the fastest runner, nor the most consistent, but I am a runner. My New Year's resolution was to run a 5k this year (without stopping), and I already accomplished that back in April, now I am focusing on running faster. My next goal is to do a 5k at a pace of a 14 minute mile (which is really slow), but once I hit that goal I can move to another one. Every time I get down on myself for being slow, I remember that there was a time a few years ago when I couldn't have even run a mile outside, let alone 3+ miles. I just need to keep my head down and keep going.
