Summary: LEFT BEHIND
Review: This book is fiction that could possibly happen. It was the best book that I have ever read. Yes it was a very easy read, but also very thought provoking. I never expected to get this excited about a book, but I just couldnt put it down. I have read all six books and am very anxiously awaiting the seventh. I have recommended this book to everyone in my family and urge you to read it to. The message is plain and simple to understand. It speaks the truth about how easily people fall under the influence of sin, and the simple plan of salvation. THIS IS A MUST READ!

Summary: Impacting look into what is to come
Review: Left Behind is a book that has taken me by surprise. As a Christian having always been interested in the rapture of the church, this book has surprised me with its very clear story of what events could very likely take place. A captavating read for Christians and non-Christians alike, I couldnt put it down. I highly recommend this read to everyone.

Summary: Read it for yourself and Decide on your own
Review: Although this is not the best example of writing technique that I have seen, the message that is given is presented in a way that can be understood by all. I used to attend church and read the bible, but turned my back for the last 15 years. I just didn't have "time". However, by the time I reached the 12th chapter, I gave my life back to God. I am looking forward to the other books in the series, not so much for the writing ability, but for the message that it presents. I believe that reading this book will make you take a closer look at your own life. Perhaps that is why there are some "Christians" that have written bad reviews--Hit to close to home. Anyone who has read Revelations would agree that it is a difficult book to fully understand. This book (along with reading Revelations) can help even the young understand what WILL happen someday. This book is a stepping stone on a road that leads to God. In the end, it doesn't matter how you received God--Whether you grew up in the church, were saved by a missionary, learned through reading the bible, or through a book like this one--on that day, all that matters is if your name appears in the Book of Life. "Left Behind" will not speak to everyone, however, I urge you to read it for yourself and make the decision on your own. Buy it, borrow it, check it out from the church library, or from your local library. Do not put too much weight on the reviews that have been given for this book, even mine. Read it for yourself.

Summary: Horrifying...
Review: ...that supposedly "good" people could be so smug and sadistic as to find the eternal torture of people who don't agree with them "entertainment". The ultimate coffee table book for those who are "absolutely, positively" sure they are going to heaven and can hardly wait to laugh at those who were stupid enough to believe in a loving and forgiving God.

Summary: Left Behind
Review: This was one of the best books I've read in a long time... As a christian it woke me up to what we don't really think about, the rapture. It made me realize that it WILL happen at any time! You'll want to make sure you're "ready"! I want to have the faith NOW that Bruce, Buck, Rayford, and Chloe found after the rapture. I sure don't want to be left behind. My brother got this book for Christmas and gave it to me because he already read it. I read it over a 2 day drive home from the holidays. It was the best Christmas present I didn't receive for Christmas =) ha,ha! I can't wait to get started on the next book. I'm not an avid book reader because I don't have time with 3 small children at home, I usually just flip through magazines, but this was one book I just couldn't put down. I highly reccommend it, I'm sure you'll want to read the whole series too. Get started today!

Summary: You don't know what you are missing!
Review: This is probably the greatest book in the history of Christian liturature! Don't listen to people who tell you it is bad. This book is a huge eye opener, and a n awesome ministry tool. If there is a Christian or Non-Christian in your life who needs a little something to bring them home, this is it. YOU DON'T KNOW WAT YOU ARE MISING!

Summary: Superb!
Review: Definitely a must read! Not only is it well written and thought provoking, but it is biblically on-line. Stephen King's "The Stand" can't touch this!

Summary: Inspirational
Review: Wow. I have always been sort of an agnostic. On a good day I thought, "I hope the Bible is true". This book was tremendously thought provoking, and it was exciting to learn interpretations of Bible prophecy as I read a fictional book. I have read all the books in paperback so far... and then had to read "Are We Living in the End Times?" to learn more. This book has inspired me to learn more about Bible prophecy and inturn increased my faith.

Summary: A MUST!
Review: This book looked interesting so I picked it up not really having heard much about it. Well that day I read the whole book and now I've fininshed the series so far. I couldn't put it down! The characters are portrayed so honestly and the story is gripping and touching and disturbing all at once. I wish everyone I cared about would read this and be moved as I was. I never expected to so eagerly be awaiting the SEVENTH book in this series!

Summary: I don't understand the hype
Review: I received this book for Christmas and was very anxious to get started with it... I am disappointed, however. I cannot believe that the characters are not totally freaking out at the disappearance of the millions of people around the world. I am finding this book to be a fast read, but lacking in detail and realism... How can the world not be totally devastated? If it is, the authors are not accurately and clearly portraying it. It has made me think and remember God in my life, however. Although I am half-way done, I am not anxious to finish it... but I will, just to see if anyone really seems to care about the world and not just their own families.
