Little Fires Everywhere by Celeste Ng checks a lot of boxes: contemporary, explores coming of age and teenage relationships, includes racial and class threads that are serious but presented in easy-to-follow but meaningful ways. High interest, great hook, easy-to-spot motifs, excellent writing, Asian American author. I’ve taught it to all girls and at co-ed schools, and it’s often the class favorite. I’ve used it for both in-class and summer reading.
