James Dashner
Newt has been to hell and back with his friends.The Glade. The Maze. The Scorch. The inner halls of WICKED. But now he has a burden that can't be shared with Thomas and the others--the Flare. And Newt can't bear the thought of his friends watching him descend into madness as he succumbs to the virus.Leaving only a note, Newt departs the Berg before the Gladers return from their mission into Denver, Colorado. From there, he experiences the gritty nightmare of life on the streets, running from the infected and those hunting them, until he ends up in the Crank Palace, the last dumping ground of those without hope. Although Newt thought he was running away from his friends to save them from himself, along the way he meets a young mother named Keisha and her son, Dante, who end up saving Newt in a way he could never have imagined.Taking place during the latter events of The Death Cure, Crank Palace tells the story of Newt like never before, from inside his own mind, as he searches for meaning in a life gone horribly wrong. He will try to fulfill a new-found destiny before his path leads to its inevitable conclusion--and one last meeting with his best friend.

"giving it 1/5. Not gonna talk about what I liked because I have on other platforms. And SUE ME if I’m the only person to not like this book.
This wasn’t the Newt pov I wanted to see. I wished we got a lot more ivy trio content. A lot of the audiobook is kind of boring and I feel as if there is not really a plot happening and that James just made a book around this idea. I was around halfway through and still nothing really important or exciting had happened, still exposition to a weak plot that kept getting sidetracked. I was also so confused on the timeline of events and how it all fits into the main series because when the **** does this all happened cuz that isn’t really established. ( could also be my lack of knowledge, as I have not returned to the series in a long while). But like if someone could explain that for me that’d be great.
overall, I went into this optimistic, I had heard such great things and was excited, but all I was met with was a confusing timeline, a strange attempt at a British accent, and a whole novel just purely exposition. "

"I wanted to love this because Newt is my favorite character. It just wasn’t written as well as the actual trilogy or maybe it wasn’t edited well enough? The story is good, it just wasn’t worded quite right."

"This book is in Newt’s pov. It is set in the middle of the third book. I like Newt more than Thomas"

"i give this book a 3/5 since, at first, the book was a little slow-paced compared to others by james dashner which i wasnt a fan off, however being able to see newt’s pov and the workings of the flare in him kept me going and omg the last few chapters did not disappoint, def made it all worth it. especially how it all perfectly lead up to the epilogue!
