I liked them at first: I devoured the first few, but the last few have been just not catching my attention.

I couldn't stand them. And not because they're religious either (usually religious novels and novels with religious themes are pretty good, the Bible being a pristine example). The only problem was.... well, the characters were all shallow, whiny, and predictable, their reactions were unrealistic and boring, the level of writing was slightly below that of Dr. Seuss (who is a genius, I might add, but not quite Shakespeare). You'd think a story about the Apocalypse would be more interesting, you know?
