The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd: It’s hard to describe this book without going into a lot of detail. It’s more or less about Lily, a teenager living in 1960s South Carolina, and her dealings with race, prejudice, and the death of her mother. It’s a sweet and gentle story of acceptance and forgiveness. A touch predictable, but not exasperatingly so. All in all it’s just a nice little tale.
