Okay, I LOVED LOVED LOVED THIS BOOK! And the series! There is like no other ways to describe it, than, LOVE!!! The whole series was amazing, powerful, breathtaking and books you never wanted to put down! And thankfully there is 10 in the series! But this book, which is #10, was the best of all. And I was definietely sad when it ended, but like seriously, I am in LOVE with this book! It's a total must read series, and jumping right to #10 would be ashame and like pointless since you wouldn't have a connection with the characters... so don't do that! Anyway, also, not only do I love this book, there's a wedding thats planned IN the book and various love connections between the other characters.
Oops, I totally just realized I was supposed to write this as a cover love not a blog on the book, but that just shows I truly LOVE this book! Anyway, about the cover, I do like this cover the best out of all 10 of his. The girl on the picture is in fact Leah Carter, but a very grown up one since she's only 13 in Book #1, which I think is really cool how they show her progress in age in almost every cover... and they show Jeff progress in age as well. ALSO, I love how behind Leah you can see a reflection of a man on horse(Which is a soldier). The title "Bring the Boys Home" means after 4 long years of war they want there, fathers, brothers, boyfriends, friends finally home from the Civil War.
Okay I was contemplating on posting the summary for book #10 or not, but decided to since there isn't really any spoilers! Ha! :)
