My personal Rating-

{These ratings are for content, since everyone has a different opinion on the Rapture and how it will happen.}
This was probably the goriest of the series thus far, so I would caution those sensitive to blood about this book.


See y’all on Friday with a new review!


*BFCG may (Read the review to see) recommend this book by this author. It does not mean I recommend all the books by this author.
