I listened to the audio version of this book and am glad I did. The narrator's voice fit Little Bee perfectly. Hearing 'her' voice instead of mine helped me to better identify with Little Bee and her situation.
I really liked Little Bee, someone I could learn from and always feel hopeful in her presence.
I read this book on the recommendation of Les from NE. I need to thank her for reading and suggesting remarkable books. I can also blame her for casually tossing book after book on my TBR mountain.
I thought this was an incredible novel. I read it over a year ago and I find myself still thinking about Little Bee and Charlie. Now I'm wondering why it didn't make my Top Ten for 2009...
ReplyDeleteI have heard so much praise on this book and have been curious about it for such a long time. I think now's the time for me to go out and grab a copy and stop resisting! Thanks for your post...it finally pushed me over the edge!
ReplyDeleteJust read it on vacation. It's a really great read. Next stop (for those who have no read it yet): What is the What?
