The Secret Life of Bees (~)

I have finally finished another book! It's The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd. I don't really know what the title means, but it is a very well written book. It's about a young girl who is motherless and runs away from home when her and her black nanny get in trouble with men at their town jail. She lives with 3 black women who happened to know her mother. She finds out some truths about her mother, but in the ends realizes that even if her mother is not there in flesh she is still there in spirit inside of her, and that she shouldn't worry if she feels lonely because she has many friends who care about her.

Yeah, kind of corny description of the book, but there's really no other way to put it. It's beautifully written, but not so much so that it makes it difficult to get through. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants an inspirational read.

Now it is time to continue on to another Jodi Picoult book. Hopefully this one is as good as the last one I read by her.

Happy reading, and until next time!
