(ᶜᵉˡᵉˢᵗᵉ ᴺᵍ) A story highlighting the contrasting lives of others, the influence our choices make, the importance of being kind, and how race and class are as relevant as ever. I read 'Everything I never told you' a while back, which is when I first realised how strong my love for family-dynamics in a books wore. This one was no different in that aspect. It considered the winding overlap between two very different families, living in the same neighbourhood. Celeste Ng takes the reader deep into the lives of each character, weaving storylines together to create the complex idea of others' lives. It made me think about how different my life would be if just one thing was different, especially the impact our parents have on us. I found myself changing my opinions of the characters so much in this book, as details are uncovered and events take place. The book has one main storyline running through that tackles race, class, adoption, values and mistakes, which is told in such a compelling way that makes you really debate where you stand. Celeste also looks at the differences in how people choose to live their lives; those who follow rules and those who are more free-spirited; those who work for money and those who work for love; those who find kindness in everyone and those who struggle with it. I really enjoyed this book, it was slow at times but honestly it's worth the noise it's created. Can't wait to see if the series lives up to the hype. 😁 4/⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

As an experienced reader who gravitates toward emotionally complex and psychologically rich fiction, Little Fires Everywhere felt somewhat underwhelming. While the themes — parenting, privilege, identity, and conformity — are important, they’re handled in a very neat, accessible way that lacks the depth and intensity I expected. The characters, though diverse in background and intention, felt more like constructed roles than fully alive individuals. Their choices and conflicts were often predictable, and I found myself visualizing scenes as if I were watching a scripted drama — polished, cinematic, but emotionally distant. The writing is clean and easy to follow, which may appeal to newer readers or those looking for a light, topical read. However, it never truly surprised me, challenged me, or gripped me in the way I hoped. After reading Everything I Never Told You by the same author — which I found far more subtle and impactful — this novel felt more like a made-for-TV narrative than a soul-stirring piece of fiction. In short: a good introduction for readers new to literary fiction, but for those who crave layered storytelling and deep emotional resonance, it may fall a bit flat.

Great book

Great book about life, womanhood, growing up, race, and great storytelling all thru the book

Buen libro! Entretenido

La Saison des feux raconte l’histoire de deux femmes, Elena et Mia. La première élève ses quatre enfants à Shaker Heights, la banlieue chic de Cleveland, et travaille comme journaliste. (Mais sa carrière n’a jamais vraiment décollé, ce qu’elle commence à regretter.) La seconde est une artiste qui voyage à travers tout le pays avec sa fille unique et ne passe jamais plus de quelques mois au même endroit. Elles se rencontrent lorsque Mia devient la locataire d’Elena. Par le biais de leurs enfants, leurs vie s’entremêlent de plus en plus, ce qui fait remonter de nombreux secrets à la surface, des secrets qui menacent de faire exploser tout ce qu’Elena et Mia ont construit jusqu’ici… Les ami-e-s, faites-moi confiance et faites confiance aux critiques dithyrambiques, ce bouquin est génial. L’intrigue est à la fois captivante et profondément humaine. Je me suis énormément attachée aux personnages, car Celeste Ng nous explique parfaitement leurs motivations, et on comprend les réactions de chacun même quand on n’est pas d’accord avec eux. Mais j’ai également été épatée par la description de la vie à Shaker Heights, qui constitue à mes yeux un personnage à part entière. On se rend très vite compte que cette communauté n’est pas aussi progressiste et ouverte d’esprit qu’elle aimerait le faire croire, mais l’autrice réussit à critiquer ce style de vie sans tomber dans le jugement. Elle nous présente les faits et nous laisse nous faire notre propre opinion, ce qui est, je trouve, la marque d’une grande écrivaine.
