Review!

Hey guys, remember last week when I said I would review Red, the next book in the circle series?
Well, here goes!

TITLE: Red
AUTHOR: Ted Dekker

REVIEW: The follow-up to black, Red picks up where Black left off.
In the alternate reality where our world is (literally) history, Thomas Hunter is now a high-ranking general with 15 years of experience under his belt.
In the other  reality, the Raison Strain has been released, and panic soon follows suit.
With pressing issues in oth realities; the Raison Strain here, and the Horde Army rapidly growing by the day, alll with a killer chasing him, Thomas is in a bit of a jam.
How does it end up?
Does the Horde Army defeat the Forest Guard?
Will an antidote be found for the Raison Strain?
You'll find out the answer to these questions, and see other surprises too, all in Red.

RATING: 4.6/5.0

I gotsa review for ya...

I think you're going to like this one...

TITLE: Black
AUTHOR: Ted Dekker

REVIEW: This is an absolutely wonderful, beatifully illustrated story, the first out of three (or four, depending on how you like to look at it) in the Circle Series.
The main character, Thomas Hunter, is living in two realities. In one, he's possibly the only person in the world who can stop a killer virus known as the Raison Strain. In the other, he isn't sure of where he is, who he is, or how he got there, and is learning about the other world's future as if it had already happened, as he
struggles to make sense of it and find out which is the real world and which is merely a fantasy.

The author takes these two seperate storylines and interweaves them into each other beautifully, creating an amazing book.
Believe me, you will definitely want to read this. It'll keep you hooked until the end, and even after that.

RATING: 4.7 out of 5.0

Spoiler alert:
Next week's review is of Red, the next book in the Circle Series.
It's easily just as good as Black, if not (possibly) better.

I am so sorry....

Hey guys, I realize that it's been FOREVER since I've posted, and in that time, I've gotten sick and better again, volunteered and helped serve meals at a place called "the dream center", and more.
But I have NOT put up any reviews.
I am so, so sorry.
My life has just been really crazy lately, and I am currently reading Moby Dick to review it, but I didn't realize before I started reading it that it's an 850-page book.
Yikes.
Anyway, I promise that as soon as I finish it, I will give a review for it. I must say one more time that I am sorry.

I'm sorry.
Ok, that's all I have to say. Goodbye for now.
