![]() ![]() The book starts with the Richardson house on fire and the youngest child Izzy – who is also considered to be the problem child – gone. The Warrens consist of wanderer Mia and her daughter Pearl, who each march to the beat of their own drum. The Richardsons are an “all-American family.” Elena works at her local newspaper, married her college sweetheart, moved back to her hometown into a big house and had four children, two boys and two girls. Every chapter is a different POV, sometimes looking at things through the eyes of the children of the families and other times hearing the adult side of the story. “Little Fires Everywhere” is about two intertwined families – the Richardsons and the Warrens – in the 1990s. That is probably why Reese Witherspoon is helping adapt her book, “Little Fires Everywhere,” into a TV show. Author Celeste Ng has an amazing ability to make something that is seemingly mundane into something exciting that a reader just can’t put down. ![]()
