Scorch Trials

So, I read the second book of the maze runner book, and I think the entire series just likes really bad endings. The first ending was trash, although it made me want to read the second so in reality was it bad, just like this one. However still a great book, we find our heroic friends in this weird place when they have Teresa taken away and replaced by some shank named Aris. They are then told they have to make it across a barren dessert called the scorch which is basically a giant dessert but worse with crazy hail and even crazier people, in two weeks to get the cure for the disease that they had been infected with. This book was just like the maze runner, and if you read the first book and thought, well I know a little bit more, read this to know a little bit more, but have much more questions
