Not too sure on genre but the plot is basically about a young boy who visits an elderly woman who is still caught up on the fact her marriage didn’t go to plan. The boy falls in love with a girl who works at the house but the house burns down at some point

any help is very very appreciated! Not sure in the year I read this book, maybe 2017/2016. The book may have been a classic.

I read your description in the title and thought, she's not talking about Great Expectations is she? When I clicked through and saw "The book may have been a classic" I figured I may as well toss it out there.
