Customer Reviews

Slow and enjoyable

This is a great mystery and Christian exploration. These two characters really offer a lot to a reader. You get the long time Christian in Quinn and the new Christian in Susannah. The fireworks investigation is enjoyable and runs along smoothly. There are some surprises along with the plot line - I definitely didn't see the ending coming! I do wish we would have gotten more information from Jana from Fair Game (Quinn's sister), though as I'm a HUGE fan of continuity and series! Definitely a great book for summer time reading!

GREAT READ! Will be looking for more from this author!

This is the first book I've read by Elizabeth White and I was hooked from the first page. The story made you want to laugh, cry, kiss someone you love, kick something and hang the villian by his toes!!!... you name it, the author brough them all together. Going on line right now to find more by Ms. White.

Definitly Fireworks!

I just love Elizabeth White and how she is such an incredible writer. She writes in an easy way that you just can't put the book down after the first page. All her books including Fireworks keep you on the edge of your seat. I read this book on vacation a couple weeks ago and literally couldn't put it down. I loved the characters-Susannah & Quinn. They were meant to be together. What a wonderful romantic book! I would recommend it to anyone for a great read!

Great Read

I loved this book. It was funny, witty, charming, and also tugged at your heartstrings. It starts off with action that made me laugh. And then cringe. I immediately loved the characters. I so identified with Susannah. I fell hard for Quinn. I'm a southern gal and this book brought back so many fond memories. why I could just hear all them drawls. Sigh! I immediately connected with Susannah although we are not alike at all. The secondary characters were so real I felt like I'd been sitting on the porch with them sipping sweet tea. I loved Quinn and the pages just kept turning so I could find out what happened next. What's more it was all laid out in a way that I could totally follow. Oh, and all Flybabies, you have to read this book. I won't tell you why, but you will love it. Definately worth the read.

Authentic and humorous

Once I started reading this book, I couldn't put it down! I found it thoroughly delightful. Like in her previous stories I have read, Elizabeth White made the characters real and believable, with flaws and insecurities. I loved the way both Quinn as a believer and Susannah as a seeker had authenticity and wrestled with God over issues, yet ultimately both came to trust that He is sovereign. This novel also provided a delightful window into the southern U.S. culture. In addition, it was humorous (the fireworks scene at the end was great fun!) and a really nice read. I plan to reread the book when I get a chance.
