Little Fires Everywhere is a compelling exploration of motherhood, privilege, and rebellion set in the picture-perfect suburb of Shaker Heights. When artist Mia Warren and her daughter Pearl rent a house from the wealthy Richardson family, their arrival ignites smoldering tensions about race, class, and identity. As a custody battle over a Chinese-American baby divides the town, teenage Izzy Richardson's act of defiance literally sets fires—forcing everyone to question the cost of perfection and who gets to make the rules. A masterclass in suburban suspense, Ng's novel burns slowly before erupting into an unforgettable climax.
