PSA: Orson Scott Card's novel Lost Boys has nothing whatsoever to do w/the film The Lost Boys. That being said, it's been a while since I've cried so much at the end of a book.
It was strange reading a portrayal of Mormons that didn't show them as the bizarre psychos down the street. Reading this book gave me the experience of reading on in fascinated horror as the story unfolded, in the end, in a way that I knew it would but prayed that it wouldn't. To put it tritely, it was a real tear-jerker and I'd highly recommend it to pretty well anyone.
