But not as often the other way around. I like to have some action. It isn't so much the ending either that leaves your jaw dropping, it's more the entire second half.melissa @ 1lbrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292714636311546457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-68433626828961182652012-02-23T10:46:18.227-07:002012-02-23T10:46:18.227-07:00I bet he will like it, they both have a very simil...I bet he will like it, they both have a very similar feel.melissa @ 1lbrhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03292714636311546457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-1506413625840858362012-02-23T10:45:37.713-07:002012-02-23T10:45:37.713-07:00I think it does get better as you think about it m...I think it does get better as you think about it more.

I think I usually go for characters. Although I really liked this book, too. It took me a while to get into it, and I wonder if it's because I didn't feel especially connected to anyone in the story. But I think the ending makes up for any faults I found in the beginning. :)kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11221304377970098013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-53407200562704744292012-02-22T18:32:42.281-07:002012-02-22T18:32:42.281-07:00I need to get to this one but that cliffhanger end...I need to get to this one but that cliffhanger ending concerns me. I'm not, however, worried about the lack of developed characters. I'm one of those weird people who likes plot more than characters.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05738740015526095835noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-51074521288090942382012-02-22T16:01:17.623-07:002012-02-22T16:01:17.623-07:00I personally like characters more than the world a...I personally like characters more than the world around them in most books. I just got this one for my boyfriend for his birthday because he loved The Maze Runner series. I hope he enjoys this one since it sounds similar. <br /><br />Thanks for the great review!Alexahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02504096607685421368noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5537602474198205550.post-1962140306070548502012-02-22T15:48:13.465-07:002012-02-22T15:48:13.465-07:00Figuring out the genre of this one is pretty trick...Figuring out the genre of this one is pretty tricky, isn't it?
