Firefly (Cicada #2)
by
Belle Whittington (Goodreads Author)
“The darkest days are ahead of us,” Andrew whispered as the drape of shadows slipped away, allowing Blair to awaken. And in her heart of hearts she knew it was true. The unmistakable signs were all around her, growing within her. She was becoming something more than human. All she could do was accept the inevitable.

Firefly makes an excellent sequel to Cicada. I was instantly sucked into this book from page one. It took a few days for me to finish reading, but I was always reluctant to put it down every time. This series is just so different from most of the sci-fi books that I have read.
Blair really develops through this book as she starts to turn into something that isn't human. Blair just feels like a real character even though she isn't really human. She could get annoying some times, but it's understan...more

‘’Firefly’’ is one of the most interesting books I have ever read in my whole life! It is so much better than the first volume, ‘’Cicada’’, and I truly believe Mrs. Belle is an alien with writing skills<3
In this book, all the characters evolved, especially Blair. Oh my, I can’t even talk about this girl. She suffered so much and she found out so MANY things about her real life. She definitely became a heroine between the characters. Blair was a target and she was hunted like a dangerous prey...more

The creativity that I loved in Cicada was happily once again present in Firefly as this mysterious and sometimes mind-boggling tale continues. I'll admit that I spent the first half of this book alternating between being completely caught up in the suspense and action and banging my head against my desk wondering why everything had to be quite so mysterious.
One of the things that bothers me most in novels is when characters fail to share information and thus prolong their own misery and the mys...more

Epic follow up to one of my favorite books of 2012 ‘Cicada’. This one follows Blair Reynolds after the events in book one. Her world has changed as she has changed in the most unusual ways. This follows her transformation as a mere human into something more ethereal. All my favorite characters return in this one: Everett, Andrew, David and Natalie. They join forces once more to save Blair from the outside forces baring down on her and attempting to claim her forever.
I’m in awe of this series. I...more

Whoa Mama!!! There are not enough great adjectives to describe this book!!
I have been dying to read this book since I first got my hands on book 1, Cicada. Let me just say this, Ms. Whittington does not disappoint in her teeth gnashing, action packed, mystery filled, suspenseful sequel!! I love this story so much I don't know where to begin; it's so difficult to define and explain without spoilers. Firefly is darker and more mysterious than Cicada and trust me this is a very, very good thing. Ms...more

So, this was one of those that I couldn't put down. I don't read a lot of sci-fi, alien-type books, but I really liked this one. Also, I felt like Blair was much stronger in this book. I wanted to, I don't know, high-five her or something. Moreover, as someone who grew up in a small Texas town, I found the author's characters and settings not only accurate, but dead-on. Can't wait for book 3!
WOW! I loved Firefly! I was on the edge of my seat the whole time. It was truly amazing. Cicada ended with Everett and Andrew going off to "college". At least that's what the parents thought. Blair struggles with being alone, and then she realizes that the others are still out there. And she has some strange powers going on.
There are many twists and turns in this book. It's hard to know sometimes too, who is good and who isn't. I cannot wait to see what book three will bring! Check out next with...more

I absolutely loved Cicada, and Firefly was even better. It's not often you can say that about a sequel, but Firefly had me gripping my seat and swooning and sometimes both at once.
