It kills you to see them grow up.  But I guess it would kill you quicker if they didn't.

Just picked up this book, and can't put it down! I am torn between wanting to read it as quickly as possible to find out the story, and reading and savouring every beautiful word and phrase.

Little Bee is a rare gem. I hadn't heard anything about this book, but picked it up on a whim when visiting Chapters on Saturday. I was intrigued by the lack of story information about the book, and thought that the only way to get in on the secret was to read it. Apparently I have missed all of the media attention.

The last book that has pulled my like this was, The Book Thief.

I keep putting Little Bee down just to absorb! Amazing.

I don't want to let you know what happens. I want to you to read this book, and experience if for yourself. Already there have been tears, and I am just starting... WOW.
