A review by jamieford
Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng

5.0

Let me say this up front, in all caps in case you don't read the rest of this review:

THIS IS THE BEST BOOK I'VE READ ALL YEAR.

I've read a lot of incredible books in 2017, but this one stands above. It's scorchingly good, no pun intended. There were moments where I was so concerned, engaged, emotionally invested, and sometimes so enraged that I had to step away and come up for air. Otherwise I would have read the whole novel in one sitting...and spontaneously combusted.

In related news, I'll be at the Tucson Festival of Books next March, where I'll be on a panel with Celeste Ng.

I can't wait.
