Beam Me Up, Jesus: A Heathen's Guide to the Rapture di Jim Gerard

For the most part genuinely funny, though it does miss in spots. This book was a helpful corrective for my woeful lack of knowledge about the Left Behind series, which I have never read. If I had read this book before the Kiss My Left Behind book, I would have understood the other book much better in what it was doing.

Beam Me Up, Jesus: A Heathen's Guide to the Rapture di Jim Gerard

this book started out with some potential then got stupid. he tried to hard to be funny and the whole thing was just dumb. i chuckled at a couple of parts, but for the most part i was just waiting for the book to be over. thoroughly disappointing.
