Reading has become such an important part of my life. It helped me dive into a new and infinite world of knowledge, where limits do not exist. It has opened my mind and widened my comfort zone.
I am sure it is responsible for making this whole project come alive, so I can only bring all this love back by sharing with you all what reading means to me.

The perfect prequel before the beginning of what we all know as the Maze Runner experiment.

This is probably the biggest book in the saga, which means it contains a lot of data that will help you understand very important points that the movies cannot emphasize. I promise you that it will look shorter once you start reading, because the action and mystery will be spread all over.

The perfect book to learn about the insights of the human brain from a scientific point of view. If you have ever wondered why we do what we do, give this book a try. I warn you it is a theory based book, don’t expect too much practicality in it.

I should probably start by saying that I have always been a huge Kobe fan. From a very young age, I was inspired by his mentality, not only as a basketball player, but as a human being.

Last book in the saga, and I want to keep coming back to the same point: even if you’ve seen the movies, you’ll feel like you’re reading a different saga.

I would like to add that this saga develops a very interesting relationship between the two main characters, with an amazing outcome.

Mysterious would be the word that best describes the beginning of this saga. I remember reading the first few chapters and thinking: What is going on here!?!? Not understanding the meaning of this whole experiment made me feel sick. I just wanted to read more and more to find out what was going on in the labyrinth.

Comments
To be honest, this book didn’t live up to the expectations of the first one (Caraval). It’s true that the expectations were so high because Caraval is probably one of the best fantasy books I’ve ever read in my life. Anyway, it gives you important information to be able to read the last book of the saga and understand why Scarlet and Tella end up the way they do.

Definitely not a book for everyone. It is a simple biography of José Elías life, focusing on how he struggled to become billionaire. If you’re looking for inspiration to jump into the business world, it may helps, but, other than this, I don’t recommend to read it.

Comments
A perfect match for people involved in the world of psychology, but definitely not a good one for me. I have to be honest and say that Sigmund Freud is not a good communicator, or at least he didn’t make me feel this way. The way he explained things made them look even more difficult than they were, using complex structures and unnecessary vocabulary.
- Albert Einstein

- Biography
Comments
To be honest, I was expecting something different. I have always been a big fan of physics, and of course Albert Einstein is a role model. That’s why I decided to read his autobiography to understand what made him such a historical icon.
