All the Little Houses by May Cobb. Sourcebooks, Landmark, 2026. Adult fiction. Mystery.Charleigh Andersen is the queen bee in Longview, Texas. She and her handsome husband have money, the big house, and one teenage daughter, Nellie, a truly spoiled brat. When a back to the prairie type family moves in, the Andersen family equilibrium is totally unended. From the beginning, readers know someone is dead and the book builds the story until the very end. Teen angst, adult drama, gay attraction, and small town intrigues are all here. Chapters alternate narration from some of the characters. Details show the 1980's setting.
If you read to find an inspirational figure or to learn something, this is not the book for you! If, on the other hand, you read for a peek into perhaps the way others might live and get revenge, try this one!
