Preying For Rain by BB Easton | REVIEW!!!

 

Amazon

Synopsis:

With only three days left until the predicted apocalypse, the small town of Franklin Springs, Georgia, has become a wasteland of abandoned cars, abandoned home, abandoned businesses, and abandoned people. People like Rainbow Williams.

Rain isn't afraid of dying. In fact, she's looking forward to it. If she can just outrun her pain until April. 23rd, she'll never have to feel it at all.

"Supplies. Shelter. Self-defense."

Wes Parker has survived every horrible thing this life has thrown at him with nothing more than his resourcefulness and disarming good looks. Why should the end of the world be any different? All he needs are some basic supplies, shelter, and a sucker willing to help him out, which is exactly what he finds when he returns to his hometown of Franklin Springs. 

As society crumbles, dangers mount, and secrets refuse to stay buried, two lost souls are thrust together in a twist of fate-- one who will do anything to survive and one who can't wait to die.

Perhaps, together, they can learn how to live.

Before their time runs out.

My Review:

I loved this book! This book was something different than what I normally read and a BB Easton first for me.

Right off the bat this book had me hooked. You are reading from the mind of what seems like a young girl, even though Rain is 18 but at first it's almost like she is a little girl. Then all of a sudden this big fight happens and it's like dang, this book is going to be intense. 

Right from the first chapter to the end you are on your toes. I love Wes! He is the bad boy who is out to save himself from the end of the world happening. These dreams they have every night- April. 23rd. The world is going to end and everyone goes wild. When Wes saves Rain, she can't help but follow him. She becomes his shadow.She is just ready for the end but something about Wes makes her change her mind. 

I love it and I have since listened to the audio! Can I just say, I saw BB post that Wes was named after one of her favorite characters of all time and it is also one of my favorites of all time-- I even have his funko pop on my bookshelf! 

The ending was amazing! I didn't see it coming and it did leave you hanging on a major cliff! I almost died! But don't let that get you down! What would you have to look forward to if there wasn't that cliff! I cannot wait for book two!
