Seriously one of the best books I've ever read, now one of my favorites. This book is so relevant to today that it's scary. Always captured my attention, discusses very interesting topics like the direction the U.S. is going and religion. This was written in the 90s and yet it gets more and more relevant over time. Heads up, there were times I had to put it down for a break because the content was heavy for me, content including violence and rape.

Remarkably prescient terrifying in fact. I liked the main character for her toughness and foresight. Unfortunately I agree with her. Hard times ahead and I fear for my children. Also interesting to see how a religion can be born .
