This book is amazing. Fantastic. Any word for really good that you can think of. It's all of those. All I can think of after reading this is, Why haven't I heard of this author before? He's awesome!Theway Robin Parrish wrote Corridor is what really made me love it. It is so suspenseful. You can't stop reading, because you need to know what happens to Troy. If I did stop, I would just wonder what would happen next. It's addictive.
And the relationship between Troy and Victoria...ohmahgosh it was awesome. It's not your typical, YA, insta-love connection. I'm not sure it can even be classified as a romance throughout most of the book. It's the end that made me sigh with emotion. Literally.
The book is so unpredictable. You don't know what Troy will have to go through next. Even though I knew he would be okay, because there was still half the story left to go, I sometimes would get anxious becuase that's just the kind of story this is; one that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
I need to write about the end. There are no words for the end. It was so wonderful. That's all I can say without giving away major spoilers.
I went in to this book thinking it would be another average read. What I got was a heart-pounding, emotional, obsess worthy story that I wouldn't mind rereading ten times. This is considered 'Christian Fiction', but, though it was very clean, I think anyone can enjoy this awesome story. In all honesty, I didn't realize it was Christian Fiction until I hopped on to Goodreads. So, I would recommend this to anyone and everyone. READ, READ, READ!

The concept drew me into this story immediately and, I believe, was the story's greatest strength. Don't expect a plot thriller. Although it starts out strong, with room-after-room of terror and near misses, the growing relationship between Troy and Victoria is just as much the focus as the journey. Plus a lot of Troy's internal monologue--how much does he want to live? So this concept. It's introduced from the first page. Troy wakes up in a blindingly white room full of twisting paths, with no knowledge of how he got there. His goal find the exit. Every room is differently colored and differently dangerous, testing the limits of Troy's tolerance for pain and torment. I won't spoil it, but the ending really made it for me. I almost wish there had been more of an end because I was fascinated with where he ended up.
The writing isn't especially interesting or poetic, but it serves its purpose for a young adult action novel it's unobtrusive. Sometimes I wish it would be a little more obtrusive; in the sense that, I felt the action in the middle of the book moved too quickly. I would have liked Troy to stop and smell the roses a bit. Or at least describe in more detail what it felt like moving through the giant donut-shaped yellow room of fire. The white room was a lengthy ordeal, while some of the later rooms, despite being increasingly dangerous and deadly, were accomplished in a short amount of time. I would have preferred fewer rooms that required more time rather than the amount we were given.
Could you imagine waking up, out of nowhere, in a room that defies physics and the only way to survive the mysteries surrounding you is to run? What if you had assistance in the form of a voice in your head (and were still sane, by the way) and couldn't answer all your questions at once?
If you think that sounds strange, that's not even scratching the surface, and is barely the beginning. Multiple rooms with different ways of defying all that is normal, different brutal challenges going on, this was one young adult novel I loved recently (in a way, I thought of it as a more explicitly sci-fi Hunger Games with only one person on a challenge for his life and not having to kill anyone, so it's no rip-off, it's its own unique thing with reminescence). With question answered, I ended up learning one important thing I should've learned with Robin's Dominion Trilogy- to give up trying to predict just what is going to happen and what overall is going on.
Until the very end, from twist to jaw-dropping twist, the little moments that make Troy and his assistant all the more human in an inhumane world, this was a total joyride that managed to spike my adrenaline at the thought of what all was happening. In the end, I gave up predicting and went with the ride only to be floored with the last few pages.
First let me say that Robin Parrish is one of my favorite authors! Not including Corridor, I've read four of his books - Vigilante (#1 on my top ten books read in 2011), Relentless, Fearless, and Merciless. His other two books, Offworld and Nightmare, are on my wish-list. )
Corridor, from the beginning pages, grabbed my attention. I wasn't even planning on reading this book yet, just thought I'd read the first few pages and then stop. But I couldn't stop. I stayed up WAY too late reading, until I finally realized I had to get some sleep. I finished Corridor the next day! It was sooooo good!
Troy, on the eve of his 17th birthday, wakes up to find himself in a bright, white room - so bright that he can't even keep his eyes open! How he got there and why, he doesn't know, but that white room is just the beginning of Corridor!
As the story continued, it got better and better - there were a lot of surprises and I loved every minute of the book. While, I guess, Corridor wouldn't be considered "Christian fiction", I still really enjoyed it. It was clean and very suspenseful.
I think fans of The Hunger Games will enjoy Corridor because to me it was even better than The Hunger Games, and way less gruesome!
I loved Corridor! It's now one of my favorite books and definitely one I'll be rereading. I completely recommend it - as long as you don't mind reading books with a little sci-fi/futuristic elements. I'm hoping there will be a sequel! )
