clockwork-serenity
  • Rated 5 stars

I found this a realistic portrayal of high school kids just being kids, but also having to deal with a traumatic situation. I liked that these were the smart kids because it reminded me of myself growing up and trying to rebel against doing the right thing while still making sure I got my homework done and that I got decent grades. Each character was explicitly defined and had a vibrant personality all of their own. I loved Miles’s love of last words by famous people; it brought deeper meaning to the whole analysis of living life in the labyrinth and exploring endings. This was a book that made you think in a philosophical way. I wish it was available when I was in high school because I know I would have held it dear.
