The Journal of Curious Letters

The 13th Reality
The Journal of Curious Letters

This book sat on my shelves for some time. Something about the cover just didn't appeal to my interest as much other books. However you can't judge a book by its cover.

James Dashner takes the reader on a journey that is unique and appeals to the imagination. While the idea of Quantum Physics has been used in several books, tv-series, and movies, his approach is unique enough to make it stand out against the competition.

Tick is a young boy that eventually teams up with several others to save the Realities from Miss Jane. Miss Jane is the only real drawback to the story in my opinion. However the story was written well enough for me to overlook that aspect of the book. Looking forward to reading subsequent novels in the series.
