Great story with a Great message!

The Secret Life of Bees had everything: great storyline, amazing characters, heart worming message. The book should be considered a classic and it should be recognized as one of powerful novels. I do believe the novel should be mandatory read for high school English classes because it explores the importance of family and home.

What Will Hollywood Do To This Great Book?!?

I loved everything about this book. A page-turner with a wonderful spiritual overtone -- nothing hitting you over the head. Great Characters. However, I won't see the movie. Concern about the industry ruining a good thing. And seeing Dakota Fanning in the role? After her last controversial movie! Her parents should insist that she leave the business and become a "regular" teen-ager, whatever that means.

Secret Life of Bees

I greatly enjoyed my purchase of Sue Monk Kidd's book "The Secret Life of Bees." The book is well written in an easy to read style. I didn't want to put it down.

Sweet But Dark

Sue Monk Kidd's 14-year-old principal character Lily Owens' quest to unlock the mystery of her deceased mother's past leads her to forge a familial bond with an unlikely family of accomplished black women. The story is bittersweet in that unimaginable cruelties are inflicted upon the young girl by her bitter and emotionally battered father "Bees" is set in the early era of the Civil Right movement. Kidd includes just enough racial tension to make the story believable. General lessons in humanity are poetic as Kidd employs the goings and doings in the complex lives of "simple honey bees."
