A review by bookph1le
Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng

5.0

This book... It was breathtaking. It crushed me and made me cry and made me burn with shame. It is a flat-out amazing book, and maybe at some point I can do it justice by writing a coherent review. At any rate, it deserves all the praise and hype it has gotten and continues to get.

Spoiler

I mean, it even made me feel sorry at the end for Mrs. Richardson. Mrs. Frickin' Richardson, who is the epitome of a clueless, privileged, blind, self-indulgent, self-righteous, horrible, horrible white woman. After spending most of the book wanting to slap her, that was really something, a testament to Ng's authorial powers.

Now pardon me while I get my hands on Ng's other book.
