Free Audiobook: Little Fires Everywhere, by Celeste Ng

When a perfect suburb catches fire

Set in carefully planned Shaker Heights, Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng follows the outwardly flawless Richardson family and the new tenants in their rental house, artist Mia Warren and her daughter Pearl. As Pearl is drawn into the ease of the Richardson home, Mia watches from the edges, aware of how different their drifting life has always been from Elena Richardson's ordered world.

The balance between the two families starts to shift when Mia and Elena land on opposite sides of a custody case involving a Chinese American baby adopted by Elena's friends. Questions about class, race, and who has the right to call themselves a good parent begin to surface, touching every member of both households.

By the time the Richardson house quite literally goes up in flames, the ties between parents and children, neighbors and outsiders, have been tested in ways no one could have predicted. The audiobook traces those sparks back to their source, showing how small choices and guarded secrets can reshape an entire community.
