Rapture Ready!: Adventures in the Parallel Universe of Christian Pop Culture by Daniel Radosh

3.0

The author kept the book lighthearted. It was obvious he wasn't trying to be unbiased about some of the darker sides of evangelicalism so it was clearly more of a humourous memoir of his journey through Christian pop culture than a serious study of the implications, etc. All in all, I really enjoyed it. I find Christian pop culture extremely fascinating so it was fun to just read about it and read interviews with those living within the culture. The ending felt a little rushed with the whole "Maybe we can all end up getting along..." bit, which seemed to ignore a lot of the anti-Semitism, homophobic and extremely misogynists things he witnessed. But otherwise, a fun read!
