I must admit, Iāve found this yearās #blogjune to be SO much easier than in previous years. Maybe because Iām finally getting into my stride with it? Or perhaps because in 2016 Iāve run with a theme? And I hesitate to say a third possibility: because Iāve been writing more (novels, newsletters, writing challenges, etc) that the writing is flowing more easily? Anyway, it seems to be working because weāre past the halfway mark and itās only now lack-of-internet problems are rearing their ugly head, Iām worrying about how-and-where I can use public data supplies to continue this challenge. Not because of lack-of-ideas, or lack-of-time. And that realization makes me happy. (The lack of internet, far less so. But letās keep this a happy blog post, huh?)
Anyway, after all that introspective waffle, on to my Book 17 of 30 must-read books. This week, itās Christian titles Iām recommending, and who could go past Tim LaHaye and Jerry B.Jenkinsā Left Behind series?
This is an awesome series. The āend of the worldā scenario tends to cause a plethora of debate in Christian circles, but Iām glad that the approach taken by these authors stays true to one of the main interpretations of the rapture. I must admit, their interpretation (that the rapture occurs pre-Tribulation) concurs with my own, so I may be more easily impressed š That being said however, even if theyād written this series with a different interpretation (mid-Tribulation rapture, for example) I think I still wouldāve included them on my ā30 must-readā list because their writing is so thoroughly compelling.
Have you read them? What did you think?
And have a fantastic day, dear reader!

PS I liked the āLeft Behind ā The Kidsā version too! Although admittedly, I havenāt finished the entire series, what I have read has left me in no doubt of their abilities to write masterfully for the MG / YA audience as well Ā š
