It is a great book indeed. But I think these unimaginable events are soon going to happen as time goes on because the devil will fight until he gets many to his side. Thank you for your review.

Lily experiences several tragedies in a matter of months, I can only imagine the depression and horror that can engulf a person after something like this happens to them. This sounds like a very alluring book, I can't wait to read it! Thanks for the review!

The opening of the book grabs your attention. The group go from reminding themselves of horror stories to finding themselves in one. I'm not quite sure I'm up for facing the rest of the book based on how Lily deals with being the only survivor.

Wow, this sounds crazy, as the title says! I wonder, overall, how effective the horror is, given your reservations about the writing style. You seemed to enjoy it, though, so I'm inclined to think it works well enough, on balance. I'm intrigued. Might have to give it a try. It's definitely not my typical choice of genre.

So far, I am not sure I will read it, but I am sure I will try it! Thank you for pointing out the need for more fleshing out of some of the events. I have run into that recently and it really can detract from an otherwise well-written story. I am not one to need lurid descriptions, but if an event is tragic enough or traumatic enough (or spectacular enough) to profoundly change a character's life, then that horror (or joy) should be brought to impactful life in the story. This is an important point that somehow seems to have been overlooked in several books I have read which were based on Christian Apocalypse foundations.

Great review, suspense is something I really like, it could not be a christian but some people have genre preferences as well.

People begin to change their narrative about you when unfortunate incidents always happen when you are around. In fact, you begin to suspect yourself. I wonder how things change for Lily. Congratulations to the author on winning book of the day.

What Lily had to witness is extremely terrible. A story that combines tragedy and horror? I love those stories! Lol. Crazy Time seems to be a unique and interesting book. The use of sarcasm and irony catches my attention; I'm thinking of reading it. Thanks for the review.

The characterization of Lilly in this intriguing story seems fabulous, and the traumatic events Lily experiences and how she overcomes the challenges circumstances throw at her would be worth reading this story.

'Official Review: Crazy Time: A Bizarre Battle with Darkness and the Divine' by L. Andrew Cooper describes the contents of the action thriller story in brief for readers. It presents the bright points of the author's work for keen readers. The point that the book is a bizarre battle with darkness and a combination of horror, depression, and tragedy is worth mentioning in the review. The story's theme of combining darkness and the divine, drawn from the Bible, was effective and meaningful. Also, as mentioned in the review, the point that the author uses figures of speech like simile, metaphors, sarcasm, and irony is remarkable for readers. It was great to learn that the book was engaging, unique, informative, and suspenseful!

This is a highly engaging fictional novel that has many positive aspects and a few downsides. I especially like how intriguing the plot line is as the main character, Lily, believes she is cursed after experiencing multiple bad tragedies. Congrats on the BOTD!

This appears to be a very interesting novel. From the review, it sounds like it has a lot going on in the murder and suspense department. There's even trauma and rape. Poor Lily has had a tremendous amount of horrible things happen to her.

As interesting as this sounds, I am going to have to pass on this one. I am not interested in depressing horror. Excellent job on the review though!
