About this listen
When Lily's fierce-hearted "stand-in mother", Rosaleen, insults three of the town's fiercest racists, Lily decides they should both escape to Tiburon, South Carolina - a town that holds the secret to her mother's past. There, they are taken in by an eccentric trio of black beekeeping sisters who introduce Lily to a mesmerizing world of bees, honey, and the Black Madonna who presides over their household.
This is a remarkable story about divine female power and the transforming power of love - a story that women will share and pass on to their daughters for years to come.

Beautiful
I had read this book many years ago and wanted to read again. I NEVER re-read but it has stayed with me all these years. Listening to it was enchanting, adding another dimension to one of my most favourite stories. Well done and thank you.

I decided to read the book after seeing the movie
A great movie but the book filled many gaps the move missed on so much.

LOVED!
The narrator is probably the main reason I loved this book so much! She’s adorable and so much emotion behind her words. Phenomenal choice of narrator and story. It was beautifully wrote and read. Deep details that created feeling through the story line. Loved this book!
