Book Review of The Secret Life of Bees

The Secret Life of Bees
reviewed on
Helpful Score: 2


This is an excellent book on many levels. This author was brilliant in her ability to present her story from the point of view of the adolescent struggling with the crises of her life, and yet seeing her struggle from the perspective of the adult who has overcome them. The people who really matter in our lives may play no role in our birth. Support and help comes from where ever you let it. There are lessons here for all of us. It just depends on what role you happen to play in the beehive.
