Love Hate Relationship

So I have a love hate relationship with books that are a part of a series.  Right now I just started the third book in the Maze Runner trilogy.  I hate that I finish one book and then need to immediately go out and get the next one, but I love that I have something to read that I am invested in and want to find out what happens next.  The first two books in the series were great- not too difficult to read, so I can read them leisurely when I have other stuff to do, plus they were really exciting.  Here is a little summary in case you want to check them out:

The Maze Runner- Boy gets put in a giant maze with several other boys but doesn't remember anything about his past life or why they are there.  Must figure out why they are there and find a way out.  
This one really starts to get good about half way through, so bear with the beginning...

Book two  in the series: The Scorch Trials- Boys are in different situation than first book, but still intense and now that I care about the characters, this one is even better than the first.  That is all I will say in the spirit of no spoilers.  

I must say now that I am on the third book, The Death Cure, I will probably not be grading too many of your essays until I finish.  Sorry, but it is just that good.
