I gave The Present Darkness a 5 star read, but the second and final book in this 2 book series was so much better. The salvation of Sally Roe made me cry. It took me a few chapters to really get into this one, but once I was into it, I didn't want to stop reading. I will definitely be reading more books by Frank E Peretti in the future. I highly recommend The Present Darkness and Piercing the Darkness to all readers, especially Christian.
First, I want to thank Mrs. Janice Sample for telling me about this book and author. I have to say it is a book every Christian should read. The ones of us, who are Christian, know about the devil and demons. In this book, Frank E. Peretti hits the reader over the head between the fight of good and evil. As the town of Ashton is surrounded by demons, there are a few people who fight for God.

Delicious summer coffee flights!!
Low pick. This is my second Nghi Vo book and I love the way she writes. Lots of other reviews have pointed to this being very vibe based - and that‘s both a strength and a weakness - loved watching a city rise, fall and rise again over a large span of years but the weakness is that there isn‘t really a character that you grow to care deeply about.
Not my favourite Nghi Vo, but it might have been more the audiobook narrator‘s voice that had me drifting off more often than not. Dreamy beautiful writing, but I didn't feel attached to the characters. If you like classical mythology and immortal, larger than life characters, you'll probably enjoy this more than I did.
This morning‘s📕 swap scores on the way to a spot of grocery 🛒 before the shops shut tomorrow for 🐣. I‘m home from visiting the relos & will have the w/e off 🩰 so intend on cooking up a ⛈️ & cleaning like it‘s spring to prepare for a term of performances that culminates in a comp at the Opera House in July. I‘ll be performing 3 dances. I also have to tack 2 tutus & rest. That will happen while I catch up on Handmaid‘s Tale. It‘s great so far.
