Okay, Lightning Bugs and Aliens is just really good, and if you grew up reading coming-of-age stories, this one is going to hit you right in the nostalgia center.
It’s 1960, small-town Ohio, five thirteen-year-olds, and there’s been an unexplained explosion that they’re absolutely certain was aliens. The Cold War paranoia and science fiction movie craze of the era give the adventure real texture. But underneath the alien-hunting there’s a story about friendship, race, and what it costs to grow up honestly.
An Amazon reviewer said they felt transported back to childhood with their own friends. That’s exactly what this book does. All ages, and I mean it.
