Little Bee by Chris Cleave
Little Bee
By Chris Cleave
This is the story of life and how everything can change in an instant. The unlikely meeting of two women will change everything in their lives forever. Sarah, a British journalist, and Little Bee, a Nigerian village girl have a horrific first encounter that will follow them and tie their lives in an impossible knot. This story is so magical and beautiful, the eloquent writing transports you to another world. The characters are so real and relatable. The way Cleve works makes you feel everything these two are going through so clearly. He portrays the realness in choices. Everyday we are faced with important decisions, and these decisions will shape both who we are and what our future will be.
This heart warming story is a quick read, but there is no word wasted. It has been a while since I have read a realistic fiction book that has carried me away. This book kept me turning the pages to see what would happen next to these women. The real magic in this book is truly in how the story unfolds. This is an ABSOLUTE MUST read.
Please share your feelings on this book, or if you have ever had to make a big decision that changed your life.
