Easy, light read. Shows the power of 1 on 1 relationships. Heartwarming and not controversial. ( )

Loved it. There's a crew of lovable, quirky characters and a magical element.
The bees definitely seem magical to me. They convinced Sugar Wallace not to make a bad decision 16 years ago and now they're trying to pull her towards the man she is supposed to fall in love with.
It made me tear up like three times, but only happy tears.
Very, very super heart warming book. My kind of story. ( )

Sweet fast read. ( )

This book had very silly and sometimes ridiculous plot points. It also had, in my opinion, things thrown in for no particular reason. That all being said, it is a wonderful story of Sugar and all the misfits she seems to gather wherever she goes. Very enjoyable. ( )

I found this charming and delightful. It was everything I expected and more. Sugar Wallace is a beekeeper who moves every year and helps the people she meets along the way. Her move to Alphabet City in New York is no different. This time, however, the people she helps rally around her to help her along with Queen Elizabeth the Sixth, the queen of her hive. I loved all the characters as well as the chapters that included the bees. Theo was the best with his steadfastness, determination and ineptitude. I loved the descriptions of Charleston. And the kilt was just the icing on the cake. A lovely piece of fluff that put a smile on my face the whole time I read it. ( )
