Title: Bee Serious
Review: Secret Life of Bees is one of my favorite books. I looked forward to the day that The Mermaid Chair would be released. What a huge disappointment! It was sheer drivel. The only thing that I like was the cover on the hard back. Such a predictable, boring plot. If ever there was a formula book, this would be it. It would have been an appropriate serial novel in a women's magazine. This book was so bad that I question if anyone can take her spiritual writings seriously. Insanity happens. Faith is doubted, and temptations are acted on every day. People fall and are redeemed. However, there was nothing redeeming about this book! They say that everyone has at least one good book in them. I guess "Bees" was her one and only. I hope she finds her voice, again. It was beautiful while it lasted.
