Welcome to Latham's Last Words, where I give you my last words on books I've enjoyed. This week's review is another Halloween read, The Jack O'Lantern Men by Lee Allen. Not your typical Halloween story! A surprise 5 stars! I grabbed this book simply because of the title and cover since it's October and I try to read as many Halloween books as I can.
