I very much enjoyed Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng which is set in Cleveland in the 1990s. A single mother, Mia, and her teenage daughter, Pearl, move in to a rental property owned by the Richardson family. They are the "perfect" family living in the "perfect" home - mother, father, two teenage sons, two teenage daughters. The families become enmeshed in each other's lives. Mia and Pearl have never stayed long wherever they've lived but seem more "settled" this time. However, without intending to, they stir things up for this "perfect" family. Highly recommended. 41/2/5
