Read of the Week: ‘Little Fires Everywhere’ by Celeste NG

This week’s read of the week is Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste NG.

Celeste NG is a New York time bestselling author who released her latest book ‘Little Fires Everywhere’ in September of 2017. This book is a deep psychological and emotional journey that will make you turn page after page with its terrific story and great family dynamics.

“In Shaker Heights, a placid, progressive suburb of Cleveland, everything is meticulously planned – from the layout of the winding roads, to the colours of the houses, to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richardson, whose guiding principal is playing by the rules.

Enter Mia Warren – an enigmatic artist and single mother- who arrives in this idyllic bubble with her teenage daughter Pearl, and rents a house from the Richardsons. Soon Mia and Pearl become more than just tenants: all four Richardson children are drawn to the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a mysterious past, and a disregard for the rules that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community.

When old family friends attempt to adopt a Chinese-American baby, a custody battle erupts that dramatically divides the town – and puts Mia and Elena on opposing sides. Suspicious of Mia and her motives, Elena is determined to uncover the secrets in Mia’s past. But her obsession will come at an unexpected and devastating cost…”

Little Fires Everywhere is available on Amazon here.
