Critics Review
“A thoughtful depiction of a teen embracing change.”–Publishers Weekly“Plenty of complex and vulnerable moments in the story…an enjoyable read.”–Kirkus Reviews“Make the Fireflies Dance is magical and loving, romantic and incredibly moving. I read this novel in one night, turning the pages madly, veering between laughter and tears. Rachel Bateman is such a good writer; she brings her characters to life, makes us care about them as if they were our best friends (especially Quin), and makes us wonder about them, wish them well, long after we have read the last page.”–Luanne Rice, New York Times bestselling author of Pretend She’s Here“Make the Fireflies Dance is a fresh, flirtatious love story with classic rom-com vibes and warm southern charm! Quincy’s journey through blind dates and kisses in the dark will give readers all the fizzy, firefly-dancing, first love feels.”–Kaitlyn Hill, author of Love from Scratch and Not Here to Stay Friends
“Enchanting and entirely genuine, Rachel Bateman’s Make the Fireflies Dance made my heart flicker. Quincy and her family and friends glowed on the page in so many special ways. They made me smile and swoon, laugh and cry. Bateman’s romantic comedy, with touching threads of the power of friendship and grief woven in, will bring light to your life.”
–K.L. Walther, author of If We Were Us and The Summer of Broken Rules“I remember walking my first date to her front door after homecoming, filled with so much hope and joyful anticipation. Just like this wonderful feel-good novel of delirious first kisses. Like that night, it will leave you blissfully happy and wishing for more.”–Jamie Ford, New York Times bestselling author of The Many Daughters of Afong MoyAbout The Author
