Second Chance: The Search For Truth (2015) - Plot & Excerpts
Dear Readers,This book is a christian book. So, if you are not a christian freak then it won't be a good book for you. But this book tells children ages 12-16 that God is coming back to take his people. I recommened this book to children that are into religious books. This is a book that you don't want to put down. You would not want to miss a page. This book deserves a 4.1. This book is mostly good for pre-teens to young adults. This book is talking about tribulation. Here is a summary that I wrote about this book. Bruce Barnes told Judd Thompson, Vicki Bryne, Lionel Washington,and Ryan daley about God's plan and when God will take his people again. Everyone told about their past and relationships with their parents and God. When Bruce finished his meeting, Ryan ran as a herd of cows were chasing after him. Vicki started walking the direction to her house until Judd dtopped her askig her if she wanted to come with him to get his dad's car out of the parking garage at O'Hare airport. She really had no one to be with, so she went with Judd. Vicki was sitting on the curb infront of New Hope Village Church while Judd was called for a cab. It took nearly two hours for the cab to come. Along the way to O'Hare International Airport, Judd and Vicki ran and recieved Christ as their savior while the cab driver drops them off three miles from the airport. As they reached to the airport they ran to the parking garage to get the car quickly as possible. By the time they reached the parking garageit was four in the morning . It was our hard for them to get the car out. They band together as brother and sister and put their faith together and trust God to get the car out of there. There was traffic from people moving cars from the road so they can get by. By the time they came out of the traffic it was almost seven in the morning. Vicki's trailer was nearby and she suggested to go to her empty home. She saw her devolpment and saw that most of the trailers were burned down. She got out the car and found her house in a pile of ashes, burned to the ground. She asked Judd if she can live in his house. He had no other choice but to let her sleep at his house.

yeah- isn't it great that God actually gives them ANOTHER chance! Praise God for His mercy! I liked the first in the series but haven't read this yet. I think I will read the adult version after I get through all of this series-and by that time I'll be an adult anyway! Want to be friends? :) <>< Aqua

The thing I love about these books is they keep you interested, they're really short, and I never wanna put them down. Judd and Vicki go get his car at the airport. Lionel's uncle kills himself. Lionel and Ryan find out Lionel's Uncle's enemies moved into his house, waiting for Andre. So now everyone's living at Judd's house, and Lionel had to identify the body in the morgue, and says it's not his uncle.
