Loved it!

I liked this book. I enjoyed the characters and learning a bit about bees...lol.

LOVE this book !! It is definately my favorite!!!!!!

Loved this, wonderfully affirming of community and feminine spiritual/divine images as well as just some good plain humor. Lots of lines I pull from this book every so often. Didn't like her 2nd book Mermaid Chair though

Good story of a girl who comes to grips with some issues in her life, learns some things about herself, and helps the reader understand a bit about what the civil rights era was like. Not my favorite genre of book, but I enjoyed it and read it quickly.

I didn't think I'd enjoy this book as much as I did when I first started reading it. It is a sweet (no pun intended) and enjoyable story, though, and I was moved by the sentiments of a hurting girl and relieved when the girl finds love in the most unlikely of places.

Loved this book..I would read it again!

I absolutely loved this book. It's one of those books that you hate to put down once you start reading it. It's endearing and fills your soul!

It was an interesting story, really quick read, nice feeling in the end.

I enjoyed this book but I hated the Mermaid Chair by the same author

Enjoyable reading.

Another book club special, but again a book full of insights. Not so much into bees, but into southern, rural, black life. And frankly, into the nature of love.
