Guide Review - 'Til The Boys Come Home: LDS Book Review
I had a hard time putting down this book. It was intriguing to find out what would happen to the boys. I thought when I first read it that it would be more about the war than it was; it focused more on the boys. The characters were interesting and fun to get to know. This book is worth reading. It's not quite the war novel I expected.
