I've grown to love the fictional family--so glad I was able to find all of the book series. I love reading about history. Thanks for helping me find the book
Good book, makes you want to read the next one.

I enjoyed this novel, it is a good series although I enjoyed the World War II series better. I didn't like how he jumped around characters unevenly, with more time to my less favorite ones. All in all, it was a good page turner and worth reading.
Take me home

This book kept me on the edge of my seat and sucked me into the world of the Thomas'. I literally felt like I was lurking through the Vietnam forests and feeling the frustrations of the peace corps who helped out in the Phillipeans. It helped me understand how to look through the eyes of others and understand them. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes an unpredictable book and likes anticipation. It was a joy to read!!!!
Great Historical Fiction

I really enjoyed this book. I literally couldn't put this book down! This book focuses on the Thomas family during the 1960's and 1970's. I thought that it was a great historical-fiction novel, because I learned a lot about the time period. (If you haven't read the previous books in the series, then the book won't make much sense.) This book has a very interesting plot. There are many things going on at the same time, through different characters. There is a character that is actually in the war, one in Germany, one in the Peace Corps, and one in Utah. I love how the book presented the time period through many different angles and points of view.
'Take Me Home' a page turner.

this exciting historical book recapes the history of the vietnam war through an LDS family. It takes you to the forests of Vietnam as you sit on the edge of the seat anticipating the next page. It takes you into the lives of an abusive relationship and how she survives. You also see through the eyes of the Peace Corps in the philippeans and there frustrations and happiness. I would recomend this book to everyone who is curious about the Vietnam war and loves adventure.
