Book Review by Rose
If We Survive by Andrew Klavan
My Thoughts:
Wow! This book might have made my mouth drop open a number of times. There were no slow parts of the book, and it kept moving at a rapid pace without feeling rushed. It had a lot of violence in it due to the subject matter, but it also had a lot of Christian content that I really enjoyed. Many times the characters relied on God to help them through a seemingly hopeless situation.
At the beginning I was not sure what to make of this book, but it got better and better. I really enjoyed seeing Palmer and Nikki grow as characters. I am disappointed that there is not a sequel.
This book is definitely for anyone who is looking for an action/adventure book and loves a thrilling tale.   Rose

Personal Rating: 4 Stars

 Teen Librarian Says: Andrew Klavan has written other books that readers might enjoy. His books are becoming even more popular than they were already.
