This book was a selection for Book of the Month this April. I chose it because Charles Soule has written some of my favorite comics.
This book is about Will Dando, who receives several predictions from one dream. He posts select predictions on 'the Site' and he is known as 'The Oracle'. The government is after him, and religious sects are calling his the devil/blasphemer. It was impulsively readable.
But, it was just good. It wasn't great. Which, was a bummer. Because though it was readable, there was nothing new about it.

FRICK I LOVE THIS SERIES! I think I maybe preferred The Diviners a little bit more but this one was still EXCELLENT! I'm so tempted to just launch straight into until the devil breaks you now but I'm going to give it a rest for a while but I still need more of my beloved little divining gang who I love so much. I even love Evie now! Who knew all it would take was enemies to lovers and fake dating tropes, I really am that basic! I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS

"When I’m thinking about what draws me to some of these films, it’s really my love of watching great characters experiencing some kind of break with reality. And this movie illustrates that. First of all, I love the idea of someone trying to sell their first-born child to the devil for an acting part. Insane! And then the character of Rosemary, embodied beautifully by Mia Farrow, is so compelling. You see how a woman can lose herself in the process of protecting her child. It feels accurate to the experience of being pregnant."
