I'm liking this book less and less

I'm currently reading short books, like Nikolai Beryaev's ORIGINS AND SENSE OF THE RUSSIAN COMMUNISM, or light books from my home library

Political or military commentators, like astrologers, can survive almost any mistake, because their more devoted followers do not look to them for an appraisal of the facts but for the stimulation of nationalistic loyalties.

(When a politician's speech - garbage and nonsense - strokes the nationalistic feelings, even the voice of wisdom won't be heard by the masses; any critique is forbidden)

I'm amazed the book won a popular award. Not because it's badly written, but because the first 10% of it are all about sex. Very detailed sex scenes. In the old day, the book would have been sold in the category 18+ for adults only and quietly, shamefully discussed in the private online groups. Now it's on the full display

Moving forward to 'The Death Cure'

If I had all time and no responsabilities, I could have read the whole THE MAZE RUNNER trilogy in one day.

Moving forward to THE SCORCH TRIALS

The THE MAZE RUNNER trilogy in 1 edition
