Fireflies in December by Jennifer Erin Valent was a terrific surprise! I haven’t heard of her or the book so didn’t know what to expect. The back cover explains that the book is about a young girl in the summer of 1932 and that her family attracts the attention of the Klan when they take in a young black girl after her parents die in a fire. I was intrigued and richly rewarded for it in reading the book. A nice set of twists and turns as her family stands strong in their Christian beliefs, no matter what other “Christians” think. Give it a read! I think you’ll like it!
