Merit is returning to her architectural career after years of feeling unfulfilled as a wife and stay-at-home mom. She’s dazzled by her new boss, Jane, and the two women soon develop a deep friendship. For the first time in many years, Merit feels seen. As Merit and Jane’s relationship grows, Merit starts to question everything she’s built her life upon.
There are a lot of complex issues, moral ambiguity and, a lot of feelings wrapped up in this little gem; The writing in this book is incredible – raw, witty, emotional, and REAL. The intensity of those feelings and the thoughts they provoke are what make “Like a House on Fire” a standout read.

A compelling story of love and careers and friendship and marriage and how messy and complicated humans can be. Excellent.

I will never be a fan of the cheating trope, but I thought McBrayer did about as well as someone could writing it without demonizing everyone involved. Her writing was very good, but I wish there was more character growth for the main character and a better ending that detailed how it came about. Still, overall an enjoyable read.
