![]() But after trying again recently, I ended up really enjoying it! PESTILENCE reads like an apocalyptic romance, where the main character Sara finds herself at the mercy of Pestilence, a personified horseman of the apocalypse. Only, the longer she’s with him, the more uncertain she is about his true feelings towards her … and hers towards him.Īnd now, well, Sara might still be able to save the world, but in order to do so, she’ll have to sacrifice her heart in the process.Ĭheck out my review on GoodReads over here!Īt first I tried to pick this book up and it wasn’t up my alley for some reason. Now the horseman, very much alive and very pissed off, has taken her prisoner, and he’s eager to make her suffer. ![]() ![]() Too bad no one told her Pestilence can’t be killed. Unless, of course, the angelic-looking horseman is stopped, which is exactly what Sara has in mind when she shoots the unholy beast off his steed. When Pestilence comes for Sara Burn’s town, one thing is certain: everyone she knows and loves is marked for death. They came to earth, and they came to end us all. ![]() ![]() Four horsemen with the power to destroy all of humanity. They came to earth–Pestilence, War, Famine, Death–four horsemen riding their screaming steeds, racing to the corners of the world. ![]()

Honestly, who has time to think about dates and what happened before that other thing when there is so much crying to be done?Īdmittedly, me. Keeping a timeline like that straight can feel like an overwhelming task. It was a saga that continually expanded, connected, and circled back through the past, present, and future until its very last episode. Over six seasons, NBC’s weepy family drama This Is Uspresented the multigenerational saga of the Pearsons, a family full of people with an affinity for emotional speeches and nice, long cries.

Declaring an “unconditional war on poverty” in his January 1964 State of the Union Address, President Lyndon Johnson launched a legislative blitz intended to go beyond addressing the symptoms of poverty to “cure it and, above all, prevent it” through major new national efforts in health insurance, education and job training, and safety net protections for the poor. ![]() |
