Enclave starts out at Deuce’s naming ceremony, where she receives her scars as a huntress. After a day of celebration, she is given her first job as a huntress as well as a partner, the dark and brooding Fade, who was found in the tunnels. Rumor has it that he came from topside. After a terrible discover involving the changing mentality of the Freaks, half human, animal like creatures, with rotted skins and sharp teeth, they race back to their enclave, only to be met by ridicule. Deuce, as well as Fade are then banished from College, and are sent topside.

Ever been reading a book but had another book (or several books) in the back of your mind that you really want to read? I frequently have that experience, especially when my current book is kind of slow. There's a few sequels I'm dying to read, but I'll focus on NEW (well, new to me) books for now. Click the book covers for a summary of each book!

Published October 6th 2009 by Delacorte Books for Young Readers

Rating: 4.5

Mild spoilers

The Maze Runner follows a boy named Thomas who wakes up in a dark, mysterious elevator with no memory of his past other than his first name. He steps out of the elevator to an audience of several young boys and is told he is in the Glade, a place inhabited by only young boys and surrounded by a large maze full of deadly creatures referred to as Grievers. Thomas tries to fit in by performing duties as he is told, but the very next day, the first girl to ever set foot in the Glade arrives, and the boys suspect Thomas of somehow being responsible. Strange things start to happen, and life in the Glade is not what it used to be. Thomas manages to become a Runner, one of the few boys who have the duty of going into the Maze to attempt to find a way out while trying to avoid the Grievers.
