July Book Review: Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng

Celeste Ng is a great author to watch and her recent book ‘Little Fires Everywhere’ has recently been adapted into a miniseries. It is a great idea to read the book before watching the miniseries with Kerry Washington and Reece Witherspoon in the main roles. This book is ultimately about a family moving to a new, small town and trying to start their lives there. Social and family issues are tackled in this book through the viewpoints of different characters as their stories collide and the reader is taken along on a journey of discovery.
