Queen Bee by Dorothea Benton Frank
4.0
I'm still casting my useless vote for the day when Goodreads allows us to have half stars in our rating system, for this book is more of a 4.5 for me. I more than really liked it, but I don't know if it qualifies as "amazing". :)
This book was fun. I know that in some ways, that's an odd thing to say, since there were several somber moments contained within its covers. But overall, I just enjoyed it all. I enjoyed the changes in several of the characters; I didn't even mind so much the characters who didn't find a way to change; and I enjoyed the shifts between home and away when the main family was split with one at home and 2 off in Vegas. And, of course, I enjoyed the bees---the actual bees, that is. It's not everyday bees become characters in books for adults, after all, so one should embrace that opportunity when presented. :)
