Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: Homecoming Review: Homecoming was a very good novel and I would recomend it to anyone who likes to read because it is a very long book. I think that Cynthia Voigt used many details, explaining every part of the book and what she wrote made me feel like I was there with Dicey, James, Maybeth, and Sammy. In the beginning of the book I really didn't like it but at the end, I felt like I couldn't stop reading.
Rating: ![3 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-3-0.gif) Summary: Mixed Feelings Review: Hmm... What is there to say. I thought Homcoming was an ok book. I enjoyed the adventure in the book and how it was not predictable. However, I thought the book was way off track. First of all I highly doubt that 4 kids could travel that far on foot without something happening to them. I also thought that this book gave people the wrong idea about what is and isn't safe. Dicey should not be sleeping in a stranger's college dorm. It was very risky. then again,this story about how their mom abandons them and how their dad walked out on them is touching, but I still don't like the message it sent and how not logical it was.
Rating: ![2 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-2-0.gif) Summary: Homecoming Review: The book Homecoming was not a very good book. It was interesting at times but not many. The author dragged on ideas and turned them boring. Also the author kept on telling how they were walking and how much money they spent exactly and that wasn't an important part of the book. The ending of the book was kind of boring and a disappointment. I think they should have went on to more adventures and the author should have stopped repeating herself. Lastly, I don't think that this book is very realistic because not many people would go on a train to a place that they barely know right away. I would recommend this book to you if you like reading very long repetitive books.
Rating: ![2 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-2-0.gif) Summary: The Review! Review: I thought this book was ok. It was so boring at some points of the book. Some parts were good because it was adventurous. I thought it was horrible at the middle though. It was so boring. At the end it got more exciting because there was a lot of suspense. I would not reccomend this book to some people.
Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: !!!Great!!! Review: Homcoming is a great book. If you like adventure books you will love this book! It has great details and once you start reading it you don't want to put it down. I read it in school. It took us about a month to read but if I had it at home I would of read it in a week. It was really fun to read. I recomend this book to everyone! This is good for ages 10-999.
Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: Homecoming Review: I read this book in my class. It was a pretty good book although it was predictable. Like when James was hurt it was obvious he was going to get better. Cynthia Voight writes a great book with a lot of good metaphors and descriptions. I don't think that Dicey, Sammy, Maybeth and James should have went and slept in Windy's Dorm room. I think that was showing how desperate the Tillermans were. Overall I thought it was a good book.
Rating: ![1 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-1-0.gif) Summary: Fell Asleep on Page One Review: A boring book if I ever read one, which made no sense what-so-ever. The book was made to sound true, but came out completely unrealistic. There is a one in a million chance that something even remotely like this could happen. The plot is completely convoluted. I do not recomend this to anybody.
Rating: ![5 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-5-0.gif) Summary: THE COOLEST BOOK EVA!! Review: ...I loved this book, so much conflict!!!The story is sad, but then things get better! I have read the book like 6 times, and i cannot stop, i very highly reccomed it!:)
Rating: ![3 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-3-0.gif) Summary: are we there yet? Review: Sammy wasnt that cool. he always made a fool of himself and james fell off the rock. [...]. he was a pale color. that was FUNNY!
Rating: ![4 stars](http://www.reviewfocus.com/images/stars-4-0.gif) Summary: Take it from me this is a good book Review: Most of us are lucky to not be able to relate to the four children in this book. Every parent tries to give their children the best childhood possible. The childhood lead by Dicey, Sammy, James, and Maybeth Tillerman is not the ideal childhood. What kind of mother would leave her four kids in a parked car in a strange town and then just walk away? 'She just slung her purse over her shoulder, walked away, and disappeared into the crowd of Saturday shoppers' (3). The Tillerman's mother goes crazy and leaves them, just as their father had. The four children set out on a wonderful adventure to find themselves and their family. I feel as if Cynthia Voigt did a good job describing the Tillerman's journey to find their family and themselves. Homecoming is a hard book to put down once you start reading, every event leads to another. The children never seem to have a dull moment in their adventure.
