The Maze Runner (point of view)

Author's Note: This is a piece I wrote for point of view and how it might affect the reader's interpretation of the story if the point of view was in someone else's perspective. This point of view piece was written on the book The Maze Runner. 


The book The Maze Runner is written in first-person, Thomas' point of view. This affects the reader because when you read the book it produces a lot of imagery. If this book was written in third-person it wouldn't be as adrenaline rushing as it is in first-person, especially when Thomas goes through "the maze." The other way the point of view would be affected would be if the book was written from Teresas' point of view, being the only girl in the "glade", while being in a coma for part of the book. I think if it was written in Teresas' point of view it wouldn't have been as thrilling as a book. The book would also be interpreted in a different way than the original way, in Thomas' point of view.
