CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

This book is being released as part of princess-peapod's ABC bookbox. The concept of the Already Been Crossed bookbox is to include books on our shelves that have been given to us by other bookcrossers. What a great idea and another wonderful way to share our books. I hope someone will enjoy this copy of The Secret Life of Bees.

I took this book out of princess-peapod’s ABC Bookbox. I have read this one before, but I would like to share it with someone else.

Book Description:

Lily has grown up believing she accidentally killed her mother when she was four. She not only has her own memory of holding the gun, but her father's account of the event. Now fourteen, she yearns for her mother, and for forgiveness. Living on a peach farm in South Carolina with her father, she has only one friend: Rosaleen, a black servant whose sharp exterior hides a tender heart. South Carolina in the sixties is a place where segregation is still considered a cause worth fighting for. When racial tension explodes one summer afternoon, and Rosaleen is arrested and beaten, Lily is compelled to act. Fugitives from justice and from Lily's harsh and unyielding father, they follow a trail left by the woman who died ten years before. Finding sanctuary in the home of three beekeeping sisters, Lily starts a journey as much about her understanding of the world, as about the mystery surrounding her mother.

I was going to give this to my mom, but she's already read it!

I am removing this book from the box to release elsewhere. I have already read this book and loved it. Just trying to keep some of the books that started out in the box from traveling back to JennyC1230.
