The Scorch Trials

Improved Essays
The book The Maze Runner the Scorch Trials is a very good read all around. It shows a very good effort of telling the story and keeping the reader interested. This book had a great easy to understand plot from beginning to end with awesome characters along with it. The setting of the book changed few times, starting in the new nice buildings going to the desolate dry desert in terrible storms and horrible conditions. The main idea and story of this book was to show the kids that were in the previous book to continue to find my problems and to solve them on their own. I thought the book was very easy to read and would recommend it to anyone interested in a great story.

He finally catches a glimpse of Theresa on a bed being wheeled away through a door; he continuously asks the doctors where she is going but never gets a real answer. I think that parts of the book like this really help the reader to stay interested and curious on what is going to happen next. As the story continues more conflicts begin to set in giving the characters more problems to solve and try to overcome. As Thomas tries to figure out where he is and what he is doing in this place he finds a new friend crawling through the vents to different places in the building. He finds things that he doesn’t like during this time and he decides that he and his friends need to retrieve Theresa and get out of this place. After this part happens in the book the action starts to set in as the kids all end up escaping into the desolate desert into a horrible storm while being attacked and chased by zombie type creatures. I believe creating actions like this to books show and give the reader suspense to help keep them entertained throughout the entire book. The author of the book now just continues the plot of all the kids running into problems while trying to escape to a safe

    In Antonioni’s Blow-Up, symbols are a large part of the characterization of the main character Thomas, and play a huge role in the execution of the themes and overall plot. The film is rarely direct, having many scenes and interactions whose intended purpose is complicated and usually hard to decipher at first, leaving the watcher very confused after it’s completion. While many aspects of the film seems disjointed with no connection or meaning whatsoever, most of the meaning is symbolically hidden, what many people believe contributes to the appeal of the film. As expected from the title, the largest and most obvious symbol is the blown up photographic images depicting the murder.…
