My personal Rating-

{These ratings are for content, since everyone has a different opinion on the Rapture and how it will happen.}

One thing that isn’t the most consistent in this series is the character’s ages. Sometimes they are one age in one book and then the next book they are a year younger again. Sometimes confusing, but unless you focus on it, those parts shouldn’t distract too much from the story.

See y’all on Friday with a new review!
