Dearest Diary,

today was one of the worst days of my entire life. mercutio and benvolio dont know that i am married to the love of my life juliet. when should i tell everyone about my marriage? i just lost my bestfriend mercutio so he didnt even get to know that i was married. i shouldnt have gotten in the way of tybalt and mercutio. mercutios wound was bad but i just had to tell him it wasnt. it wouldnt have mattered if i said that anyway because he knew it was bad and he knew he was going to die. tybalt is the one who killed him. he slipped his sword under my arm and STAB. tybalt fought me but i was lightning fast with my sword. tybalt must have been pretty mad if he fought me. tybalt is actually a really good sword fighter but i killed tybalt. when i came to the town centre i wasnt sure which side to go on, the capulets or montagues, because i am now connected to both by blood. oh i am a murderer! i shouldve known what was going to happen. its all my fault! what if i get sent away to jail or somewhere far away from my wife. when my family hears of the fight they will be so mad. what if i get sent far away from verona? i just want to go see my wife juliet and have peace between our families. i wish i could kiss her and be happy the rest of my life. all i want is peace between the montagues and capulets. i fear that juliets family will hate me even more and not even want me near her. i guess they already want that but i have found my ways. tonight i am planning to go to juliets room and complete our marriage. i shouldnt have gone to that party and fell in love with her. i shouldve stayed back and not have let mercutio and benvolio convince me to go. maybe if i didnt go then i wouldnt have to worry about seeing juliet and being sad. but i love her. i dont see why i was ever in love with rosaline because my wife is perfect. what does my wife think about me? does she think that im going to jail and that im a murderer? i cannot have her thinking that… i want her to be happy with me and we can live a happy life. what will our future be like? i want to live a life as husband and wife. what is there left in life? if i lose juliet what will happen? when my parents find out about this hopefully they are not mad. i bet they will be. if my parents find out what will they do to me?

The Maze Runner by: James Dashner

There is a boy named Thomas who gets sent to some place with a maze that they are trying to get out of. Everyone loses their memories before they come. There are other people at the camp. There are 2 runners. The runners go run in the maze and try to figure how to get out. There are walls around the maze and around the camp. There are doors on the wall that open every morning and close every night so the runners can get out and in. Out in the maze there are some Grievers. They are trying to kill them and if you get injected by them you get some memories back. They give you a grief serum to take the stuff out of you. You go through something called the changing. On Thomas’s first night there, the two runners aren’t getting back at the right time. The doors start to close and Thomas sees them coming up the hill. They won’t make it in time so Thomas jumps out and goes and helps them for the night. It is against the rules to go out there at night if you are not a runner. No one has ever survived the night but they survive the night. A few days later a girl named Teresa comes. She is in a coma and she has a note that says she is the last one. She can talk to Thomas through her head. A couple days after she wakes up bad things start happening like the delivery of food doesn’t come, the sky gets all cloudy with no sunlight, the doors won’t close and a few other things. People are blaming everything on Thomas and Teresa. At night when the doors are open the Grievers can get in. They kill a few of the people. Teresa tells Thomas through her mind that the maze is some type of code that they have to figure out.

 

I think this book was a really good book. There are more books after it, so it has a series. I am going to read the next books when I can and when I have time and am not reading other books. My favorite part of this book is the end which I can’t say anything about. I read into the next book a bit and I think it is going to be just as good or else better than this book. I would rate this book a 4.5 out of 5 stars.

 

James Dashner’s writing is quite different from other books I have read. I haven’t read too many action books so I don’t know what a lot of them are like. Most books are just about people and their life and what they are trying to do in their life like relationships and such. Most of them are good books but I like action books maybe a bit better. I guess it depends on who the writer is. He made stuff like the grievers and the maze. How he explained everything was good and I really liked his style of writing. I am going to read the rest of the series but if he has any other books I will read them too.
