This book.
All in all, too good.
Now I started admiring James Dashner. Disappoint me with the story or not, he surely makes me smile with every sarcasm he filled in this book.
And as TMR, this book too took me by surprise from the beginning. From the point Teresa got replaced by Aris, till the end.
The concept was spectacular.
Am honestly impressed.
Every line of every page I read with my nails being bitten by my teeth, wondering what's gonna happen now?
I silently hoped whatever happens, Newt and Minho should survive. I like them so much!
Their bravery is worth a standing ovation, apart from Thomas's obviously.
However, since Thomas was shot, I lost the count of the times he passed out.
Once? Aww. Twice? Get well soon Tommy. Centuryth time? WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU. JUST WAKE UP.
Honestly, I felt like diving inside the pages and asking him to wake up, and let the story move on.
Who passes out for 9 times you tell me?
Anyway..
Am glad the main protagonists survived somehow. Thanks Dashner.
I hope you don't disappoint me in TDC, I have a feeling it you would.
And, you better not.

 Unexploded By   Alison MacLeod My Rating: 3 Genre: Historical Fiction, War Finished on: 10th Nov, 2020 I have rated it 3/5. Now, why am I giving it a 3? Let me try to give a reasonable explanation here. Usually when I rate any book 3, it's either because the plot wasn't good, or this book didn't get enough attention from my side for me to finish this book in few sittings. So was it the former or latter? It was.. kinda both :| Usually when I take time to 'read' a book, I totally blame myself because maybe it's me who has to get 'used' to such writing, and for most part of reading, this was true. But later I'm not sure even the plot took a different turn, and it got me wondering.. yes, this indeed does deserve a 3. So there's this Beaumont family. Evelyn, Geoffrey and Phillip. The war has started, and Geoffrey becomes superintendent of the enemy alien camp. Geoffrey is prepared for everything, he even lets Evelyn know that he may have to leave the...

An Abundance of Katherines

 An Abundance of Katherines By   John Green My Rating: 2 Genre: YA, Contemporary Finished on: 27th Aug, 2014 OKAY. I started AAOK as soon as I finished PT. And repeating the same line as PT's review. This is a one time read. Oh, wait. Maybe a two time read. And you know why? The only thing I enjoyed in this book, or rather found hilarious is the Theorem part. Almost the whole book, I gave a poker-face expression and asking myself why even am I reading this book?! Why? Why is he creating an unnecessary theorem which makes no sense? The graphs? No sense either. And how on earth did he get the idea to add differentials in the formula! He meets old people in the book, interviews them, and resumes his effort to make this invented formula work out. As any other John Green book - apart from TFIOS - I just enjoyed the last ten pages. The rest are just not worth reading. Or maybe I was too excited to finally get this book done, lol. So basically when the explanation of the title w...

 Paper Towns By  John Green My Rating: 2 Genre: YA, Contemporary Finished on: Aug 24th, 2014 The thing about John Green's books are, apart from his Awesome 'quotes' in between the pages of his book, I find nothing worth reading at all. Look at Paper Towns. Basically half the book was about 'Searching Margo'. First I was like, okay. Margo's gone. Q wants to search her as he thinks Margo wants him to search her. I never gave a thought the WHOLE book would be about searching her. Its not 'Looking For Alaska', its 'Looking for Margo', really. Apart from that? Q, I don't care about your IM'ing your friends. I don't care how much you like 'The Resurrection' game. I don't care who has whom for their dates for Prom. Give me a story Q, a story. Okay, my apologies. I read the book. There comes a quote, "Paper people living in Paper Houses, burning the future to stay warm." and another in the beginning, "She loved mys...
