From the bestselling author of The Passenger, a novel about three college women who are united by a single night that shaped all of them that will âkeep you captivated from beginning to endâ (Town & Country) Âļ âWhip smart and cunning, deeply funny and profoundly moving . . . A knockout.ââMegan Abbott, author of The Fever Âļ When college roommates Anna and Kate find Georgiana passed out on a lawn, they wheel her to their dorm in a shopping cart. Twenty years later, they gather around a campfire at a New England mansion. What came betweenâthe wild adventures, unspoken jealousies, and one night that changed everythingâis the witty, poignant story of our strongest friendships, the people who know us better than we know ourselves. Anna is the de facto leader, as fearless as she is reckless. Quirky Kate is the loyal sidekick, until sheâs pushed too far. And stunning George is always desired, but just as frequently dumped. How to Start a Fire pulls us into the tangled bond shared by three intelligent, distinctive, and deeply real women and pays homage to the abiding, irrational love we have for the family we choose. ÂļâLutz hits a home run in this glorious exploration of friendship.ââPublishers Weekly (starred review) Âļ âExcellent.ââChicago Tribune
