The Secret Life of Bees is a delightful story of love and friendship set in the segregated south of the '60s, filled with the joys and sorrows of those days. It was a captivating read. I enjoyed the tender relationships Kidd developed, and the way she wove the world of beekeeping into the story line. The overt feminism message was over the top for me, but it was still a great read.
