Fireflies Glowed Quote by Cassandra Rose Clarke
““Finn stood, his narrow body unhinging at the waist. He handed the jar to Cat and smiled, but Cat grabbed the jar and pushed through the door, out into the cool, dampening night. The fireflies glowed again. She could hear them knocking against the glass. "How lovely," said Cat's father. "Lovely," repeated Finn, as though the meaning of the word alluded him.””
