\nMore about Little Fires Everywhe re by Celeste Ng:
\nIn Shaker Heights\, a placid\, progressive suburb of Cleveland\, everything is planned--from the layout of the windin g roads to the colors of the houses to the successful lives its residents will go on to lead. And no one embodies this spirit more than Elena Richar dson\, whose guiding principle 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 tenants: all four Richardson childre n are drawn to the mother-daughter pair. But Mia carries with her a myster ious past and a disregard for the status quo that threatens to upend this carefully ordered community.
