The Beginning of The Death Cure

The Death Cure is set in a facility in an unknown location.  The time this story took place is far in the future.  In the beginning of the book the main character, Thomas is stuck in a white room in this facility with just a desk and a toilet.  He is stuck in there for about a month according to his judging of time.  He describes this room as blank, empty space that is relatively small and cramped.  He is also haunted by the smell of his own body because he has not showered for weeks.  "It was the smell that began to drive Thomas slightly mad.  Not being alone for over 3 weeks.  Not the white walls, ceiling and floor.  Not the lack of windows or the fact that they never turned off the lights.  None of that." (Dashner, 1).

One reason I picked this book was because the summary and the cover of the book make the book look very interesting.  I also wanted to read it because of the good storyline in the other 2 books The Maze Runner and The Scorch Trials.  The cliffhanger in the end of the The Scorch Trials made this book almost impossible not to read and find out the end of the story and the fate of all of the characters.  I also enjoy the good sensory details and suspense this series brings to the table.  Those are the reasons I am reading this book and recommend it for others.  So think would you want to read this series of books?
