The Secret Life of Bees

by Sue Monk Kidd

This was a book I wanted to read and read - but it was so short. Lily's mother is dead, her father is a jerk and her nanny/mother-figure has been put in jail. Lily breaks her out and runs away, ending up in a home with a trio of sisters.

It was about mothers, sisters and friendship. I thoroughly enjoyed Lily and the characters around her, their relationships and the story.

I would recommend this book and would maybe read it again.
