The book The Maze Runner, takes place in a maze. They are in the middle of the maze and trying to escape it. The middle part in which they are in is the size of several football fields surrounded by big walls of stone. It is called the Glade. On the north east side is the Gardens, the gardens consist of the crops are grown and the water is pumped, it never rains in the Glade. Then there is the Homestead on the north west side, that is were the boys sleep. Behind the Homestead is the Slammer, it is a place like a jail. Then on the south east side is the Bloodhouse, there is where the livestock is raised and slaughtered. Finally, on the south west side is the Deadheads where there is a thick forest with a graveyard. In the center of the Glade is a metal elevator and the Gladers call it "The Box."Supplies and newbies come through there.
The character I like best is Minho.I really like him because he is a Runner. The Runners are the only Gladers that are allowed in the Maze, they are really cool to me. He is really fast and noble to Thomas. In the book it states, "... he stayed strong while I turned into a panty-wearin' chicken... I nominate this shank to replace me as Keeper of the Runners." That shows that he has courage to give Thomas his job because what Thomas showed on that night with Minho. Minho respected people, like Thomas.
My least favorite character is Gally. He is basically the bully of the Glade. He is just jealous of Thomas and the leaders. He is very stubborn and just hates anyone who is better than him. In the book he says, "I think it was all an act. How could he have done what he did out there after just a few days? I ain't buying it. I think he's a spy from the Creators." Basically Gally is just blaming him just because he doesn't like Thomas, he wants him in the slammer for a month. I really do not like Gally, he is one of the Keepers, but he is a negative and horrible one.
