Mañana reseña 🌼
RESEÑA:
Persued es el segundo libro de la saga Left Behind, compuesta desde el tomo cinco al ocho, como bien dice el titulo. Hasta el cinco lo pude leer en español pero a partir de la página 100 aprox. seguí leyendo en inglés. Acá fue donde comenzó el shock porque los personajes tenían nombres diferentes según su traducción al español 😂😒.
A partir de acá es cuando empecé a leer lo nuevo. Me sorprendió porque cambió no solo de escenario sino que también podes ver como evolucionan los personajes (ya sea en sus actitudes o en sus pensamientos). Hubo varias cosas que no esperaba que pasaran y me sorprendieron gratamente. También me gustó que pudimos ver un poco más el desarrollo de los sentimientos de ciertos personajes (cof Judd cof Vicki) aunque se desarrolle lento porque no es el tema central de la historia. En fin, que me sigue gustando mucho y quiero aprovechar a leer la mayor cantidad de libros posibles porque sé que en algún momento me voy a saturar de los personajes (como me pasó con Anne de Tejas Verdes) y voy a apartar la saga por un tiempo (todo esto porque son muchos libros, no por nada en especial).
Sigo recomendando mucho esta saga ❤😍 así que espero que se animen a leerla pronto.

THE NOOSE IS TIGHTENING
I think I maybe liked Pursued even better than Taken(book 1)? Maybe that is just 'cause I've read book one a dozen times, but I love when the kids go back to school in Pursued and all the conversations about what everyone thinks happened. We are also introduced to the cousins John and Mark. Don't ask me why, but I really like Mark.
( On an unimportant side note, I've always gotten John and Mark confused and could never keep straight which was the blonde guy and which, brown-haired. Well I finally came up with something to help me: Dark Mark and Blonde John! I know, I'm so smart. I mean, hey, it works😁)
The kids also start an underground school newspaper for Nicolae High in an effort to spread Truth to their classmates and warn them of the coming disasters. One if them has to survive in a detention center and after all this, they struggle to convince one of the group that the militia in NOT the best way to fight against Nicolae.
These kids are brave, I tell you! After things started heating up at the school with the Underground, I would have been scared to keep it up.
Anyways, I loved it, as I do all the Left Behind books. 5 stars. Highly recommended. READ THESE BOOKS, GUYS.

The Young Trib Force publishes an underground newspaper to tell others about Christ. They can be persecuted—even imprisoned—for their faith.
The "Left Behind" series changed my life. I have fond memories of reading so many years ago. Now, reading Left Behind: The Kids, those memories are coming back in full color. It's like reading two books at the same time. I love it!
The tension stayed high as the world races toward a climax. I'm shocked at how many things written in the book is so close to the evening news. We're closer than we think. On to the next book in the series.

It is as amazing as the Original left behind series books
I love the left behind kids TriBeForce. I’m so happy Kindle Unlimited has them. The authors made this so real for I could visualize the tribulations that awaits those who won’t accept Jesus Christ Before the rapture of the church. I myself wouldn’t want to be left behind for that world “literally” will try you come that terrible 7 years of it. I pray all who reads this get into reading the Bible and accept the lord Jesus Christ as their savior before they miss the rapture. God bless all the readers!

Would be 5 stars but for the editing
The story itself is well written and a great parallel to the original series. I recommend reading this. However, reader beware! The editing is sloppy, choppy and has poorly cut & pasted sections. It is not unreadable, but you must pay close attention while doing so.
Off to read #3,

great story line! a read for all ages!
I thank God everyday for Christian fiction. It helps keep my mind directed in the right place and yet is a great read. Honest folks, everyday folks living virtuous lives, isn’t that what we aim for? For all ages.

love it
I read the adult Left Behind series a couple of times and some friends recommended the Kids series and it is great. I am an old guy but I feel the story and message is good for any age.

These are excellent books. While they follow the same story trajectory as the adult version, they are not repetitive. Instead, they deepen the storyline by including more perspectives.

Another view of a great story
I read the first books and found them intriguing. These books flesh out the world of the Left Behind and is every bit as entertaining

must read
Worth every page. Keeps you on the edge of your seat. Biblically sound and so encouraging, but a reality check on what could happen… can’t wait to read the next book.

I like that the author is trying to reach out to teens with these books in this series but the adult version of the Left Behind series is a lot more plausible than this teen series.

Awesome but so sad.
Can't believe Ryan is 'Missing" & Bruce is gone. 🥺

This book was so much better than the first. The school plot was intriguing, and everything with Vicki really heightened the dangers of the world post-Rapture. I really liked the new characters.

I almost didn't read this second book after the first one was so so. But I am glad I did, this book was much better and leaves me waiting for the library to email me that the third one is available!

If I could rate this at 10+ that would not be enough. Fantastic Book. Can't put this series down.

This book was very addicting! I read it in almost one sitting! I couldn't put it down! I'm very interested to see what happens in the rest of the series.
November 25, 2015
This was a great fast paced interesting book a real page turner couldnt put it down. Went on a camp where we'd be doing no reading, brought book anyway and finished it on that camp!!! XD
