Just read the book. Lovely little book, although not as beautiful as expected. However, have read it with pleasure. It was quite a quick read, which I love.
The book has been claimed by Into-the-Blue on (I believe) the European Bookrelay.
I will pop it in the mail tomorrow. Can the book finally find more readers!

I really enjoyed reading this book. Somehow it is so sad but beautiful as well. Most of the characters in the book are very nice. A very nice read...

This was a quick read, and a lovely story. Sad at times, but I enjoyed it nonetheless.
I liked August the best, for her strength and wisdom.
Now I'm looking forward to the movie... Wanna see if they massacred the book. ;)
Though, judging from the trailer, they might actually have done a pretty good job.

The Secret Life of Bees just arrived from Tennessee! Thank you very much, TN-reader.
I look forward to reading it.
update: (September 14th 2015) What an uplifting read! I'm so glad it was recommended and so happy to have it received via Bookcrossing (Thanks TN-Reader!). The story reminded me a bit of The Help, by Kathryn Stockett, which I also enjoyed. It left a smile on my face and helped me discover a new author. I'll have to check some of her other novels.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
Left at this LFL off Marin Ave. I've left other books here that have been since journaled, so I'm hoping whoever finds it leaves a note, too. It's got so many journal entries it'd be a pity to break the chain. Enjoy the read!
Update September 27th 2015: We just went to the LFL on 900 Santa Barbara Road and this book was already gone.
