Okay, maybe it's the fact that finishing books right now is a huge feat, or I'm losing my critical edge or whatever, but I gave it a 5.
Yes, a 5.
I finished Little Bee a couple weeks ago, and thought, "Wow, that was really good." As I went through the book more yesterday and today to chime in on the discussion, and the more I thought about it, I feel pretty darned justified in giving it a 5.
I put my review here: http://sharingtheshelf.blogspot.com/2...
I just think it's a brilliant constructed novel with compelling character, wry wit, and a lot of big themes, and I just think it ALL WORKED.
Good pick, Jewels! :)

I would have given this book 4 stars****.
If it wasn't for the Sarah , Lawrence part of the story. :/
But I loved the ending, it brought everything together for me. This book definitely deserves a re-read.
Thanks Julie for picking this book. A Good Read! :D
