I did find some chapters slow in pace but overall the story kept me reading. The mystery of the climatic element of the book that’s eluded to in the beginning builds up throughout the novel but at a steady pace with twists and turns and smaller, side peaks that kept me interested throughout. I loved reading the opposing personalities of Mia and Elena and how they interacted together. The writing was easy to follow and definitely kept me engaged. Both families end up involved together in various ways and turmoil essentially ensues. Elena and Mia are practically opposites and end up butting heads on everything they both get involved in. Mia, a single artist mother is nomadic, moving her daughter Pearl around the United States and when she lands in Shaker Heights she comes face to face with Elena Richardson and her pristine family.
The story follows the happenings in Shaker Heights, a seemingly picture-perfect suburb of Cleveland, Ohio and two families that couldn’t be more unlike each other whose paths cross and intertwine. So I found the book, read it, then binged the miniseries. I have this self-proclaimed rule that if a book is made into a movie or show and it looks like something I’d really like to read, I’ll read it before I watch.
Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng was a book I was eager to read because I wanted to watch the TV miniseries from Hulu.
