The Death Cure

Your review is well-structured, but here are a few tweaks for clarity:

The Maze Runner story has a lazy and predictable ending: "Let everyone die, and only leave the ones who can't be infected by the disease in this world." By coincidence, this renders the entire story and everything that happened completely useless. Now that this is out of the way, let's talk about the other problems.Repetitiveness:The issue with repetitive expressions continues in this book. Thomas is such an angsty character... Also, how many explosions of energy or adrenaline can a human body have in such small periods of time, especially having been beaten up like these teenagers' bodies were?Memory Loss:So Thomas, for no logical reason at all, decides he doesn't want to have his memory back... Isn't it great that the writer has since released books that deal with Thomas's past?Teresa, where are thou?She went from a major character in the first book to a target of all the angst in the second, to a completely ignored character in this last book. Even her death was like what, one or two paragraphs? A little anti-climactic. Dying for saving Thomas, yeah, predictable.Seeing it the other way around, it was a good if unimaginative way of resolving the catfight between Teresa and Brenda?The return:The return to the labyrinth and revisiting its perils was an attempt to instill nostalgic feelings in the readers. This came to me as an ineffective way of trying to cater to long-time fans and squeezing the last drop of juice from an already dry fruit.Thomas, The Chosen One:After reading the three books, it catches me by surprise that Thomas is the chosen one. He ain't that smart, and he really isn't good at reading people's intentions. Something that came as odd to me was that he never fully forgave Teresa for her "betrayal" that saved him in the second book.Brenda, on the other hand, also lied to him, kept many secrets, had personality issues (from completely throwing herself into his arms after just knowing him, to being a doctor (?) for CRUEL, to finally being a relatively normal girl) and, for working hand-in-hand since the beginning with Paige.Even at the end of the book and after she almost spills the beans, he couldn't figure it out.For the record, I found the Brenda character much better than Teresa; I just think it's odd the loss of importance in the story and the different treatment. After all, Thomas has known Teresa for many years. With Brenda, it was a matter of weeks. Well, it must be the hormones changing his love interest all of a sudden and stuff...

Final Thoughts:

On a fundamental level, it's a fast-paced and quick read book and trilogy with some nice moments here and there. If you read it carefully and try to think a little more about what you've just read, the story really lays out its many flaws and a so-so writing style.

(The fitting rating would be 2.5)

Just to be sure... What is Gally's role in this last book? Another blast from the past, I'm guessing...
