The book i am reading is called the maze runner. it is probably one of the best books i have read in a very long time. It starts out with this boy named Thomas, who awakens in a dark crate like object.he sits there for about an hour when the box starts to move.when he stops moving he finds self in a mysterious place called the glade,surrounded by people he doesn't know called gladers,the native species,who have been living here since who knows when,as he emerges from the box, people are brushing him off and helping him up, the mood of this is Thomas is scared and lonely. the song I picked is all by myself by Eric Carman

then he meets their leader alby who is a 17 year old boy,he keeps everything in check,who sends chuck, which later on becomes Thomas's best friend, the mood for his part is Thomas is finally starting to get along with the new people the song I picked is you've got a friend in me by randy newman

. but when the next day a girl shows up at the glade holding a note saying things are gonna change, all the gladers are shaken up about what happening,but continue on with their lives. each person has his own job,and one of the jobs there is, is called,a runner,and what they do is run into the maze and mark down what has changed, the song i chose for this is same old song and dance by aerosmith

 when the lead runner minho comes back, he tells alby that they found a dead griever(which is a robotic animal with different claws with different utilities, and needles that poke you with a poison) the leader cant believe what hes hearing,so the next day alby and minho take off in to the maze to look at the dead griever. but when they don't come back by the time it starts getting dark, the song i chose for this part is ran so far away by the seagulls

newt,the second in command, starts getting nervous. when the doors start closing,minho is carrying alby to the maze,but there wasnt enough time. so thomas takes one quick breath, and runs out into the maze to try and help,but the door closes behind him and hes stuck in the maze with them.so no way to get back in the maze. as it turns out the griever was just playing dead,and stung alby with the poison. so he is completely useless. they're stuck in the maze with grievers closing in on them. minho decides that splitting up would be the best bet.so he takes off. thomas didnt want to leave alby there for the grievers,so he ties him up on the maze wall with vines. then he ties himself up too,now he can see the grievers. and theyre directly right underneath them. so he starts swinging across the wall,to get the griever away from alby, he uses the vine and swings to the next one,the song i chose for this is dont stop believing by journey

but with the griever gets right in the way he was going to land,thomas uses all his might and slams his feet into the griever which buys him enough time to get on the floor and start runnign. and that is where i am at in the book Maze runner
