- this book is so intriguing and thought provoking! I spent any free time I had reading because I really couldn’t wait to find out what happened next. I devoured Little Fires Everywhere.
- There are so many characters and inter woven storylines. It wasn’t hard to keep track and all of them were interesting.
- I enjoyed how the author broached topics like motherhood, relationships, adoption, surrogacy, abortion, racism, and a seemingly utopian society. All of this while still keeping the characters and their stories engaging.
- The metaphorical writing! Using elements of nature or just about anything to describe the emotions of the characters was wonderful to read.
- It’s a little slow in the beginning but once you get to the know the characters and the plot picks up, it’s completely worth the wait. I’m so happy I grabbed this book from a Little Free Library!

my only complaint is that i didn't feel strongly about any of the characters. all of them just came off as morally gray to me and it left me feeling conflicted, but it did lead to me having a more neutral outlook and the story. but i was genuinely amazed and taken away by this book. one of the best reads of 2021.

All CW topics are framed critically and seriously, difficult ones like racism, bullying and cultural appropiation are necessary for the plot and it's not hinted that they could ever be an acceptable thing to incur on them.meghanvolkman's review
