Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng

When Mai and her daughter Pearl rent a house from the Richardson family, Mai promises Pearl that this is a place they will stay.  Shaker Heights, a Columbus suburb, seems idyllic in a Stepford Wives kind of way. Neither family has any idea how intertwined their lives would become.  The Richardsons are a successful family - beautiful house, three perfect children and the fourth, Izzy, a challenge unwilling to fit the mold.  Mai is an artist, whose nomadic thrift store existence has contributed to the confidence of her intelligent daughter Pearl.  For all the teen-agers in both families, the grass is always greener in someone else's "perfect" home. This is a story about what it means to be a family, the nature of motherhood, adoption - many things any book group might want to discuss.
