    A Story of Sisterhood and the Soul

    I just loved The Secret Life of Bees. I was drawn into this book from the very first paragraph -- it's a story of sisterhood and the soul, written for those of us who prefer happy endings with a sense of realism. First-time novelist Sue Monk Kidd is going to be one to watch.

    Loved it

    The characters were so well defined. There was a bit of everything in this novel, love, friendship, politics, injustice. Definitely worth the read and as always much better than the movie.

    A great book! I totally loved it! A great book about a girl, Lily, who tries to find out more about her mother but finds herself. She finds comfort in the calender sister's home. Their relationships start to slowly bond together. A book that lets us look into the lives of those during the period of dr.martin luther king.
