Sarah Browning has trespassed on her neighbors, The
Campbells, land for many years while never meeting them. After going away to college and then getting
called back home when her father is dying, she finally meets Owen Campbell and
the attraction is instant. Sarah has felt like the odd sister. Not popular or pretty she has not had a real
boyfriend and is not confident that she ever will. Owen has many secrets and a past that could
hinder their relationship. He is somewhat
of a recluse. He believes that he will
never fall in love and that he doesn’t deserve to fall in love.
By the end of the first chapter I was caught in the web T.L.
Haddix was weaving. I felt like I was
right with Sarah and Own on their journey.
I had butterflies, anxiety, and anger along with Sarah. Owen is the attentive, loving, thoughtful
boyfriend everyone dreams of. He also
won me over by never giving up on Sarah and admitting his mistakes. He also lets her into his inner sanctum,
telling Sarah the deepest darkest secrets that he never dreamed he would share
with anyone else. The love there two
shared was truly on the soul mate level.
I enjoyed that this was not just boy meets girl and falls in
love story. There is a few smaller
storylines that I enjoyed just as much as the main storyline. Kathy, Sarah’s sister, and Randall, her
husband, story broke my heart. Seeing
how Kathy and Sarah fought like sisters, but were there to stand by each other
in their tough times was how sisters should be and I love it. When the going got tough for either sister
the family pulled together and gave 100% support made me envious of her
life. Jack and Gilly’s love story was
great. Seeing two people so in love
warmed my heart. Seeing how Gilly waited
for Jack to return and once he did never doubted his love and devotion.
Firefly Hollow is a novel that is impossible to put
down. I definitely recommend this to
everyone.
