Little Bee: A Novel by Chris Cleave
 
Book Club Recommended
Dramatic, Insightful, Interesting
Little Bee

Also known as The Other Hand... this is an amazing book where the plot and the relationship of the cast of characters emerges slowly. Shocking but very readable.

The immortal life of Henrietta Lacks

A thought provoking novel, both in the concept of our cells living and multiplying outside of our body even after our death; and also the underlying and shocking injustice towards black americans in the 1950's.

Family life from the dog's viewpoint

This was a beautiful book, written from the perspective of the ever loyal dog. I found the passage when he was accepting his death unbearably sad.

The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society by Mary Ann Shaffer, Annie Barrows

Over-use of letters..

Overall I enjoyed this book, but I found the reliance on letters to tell the story a bit tedious. Also the characters weren't altogether convincing or even likeable.
