Little Bee

Little Bee by Chris Cleave


Little Bee is heavy, but enjoyable. Little Bee is the 16-year-old Nigerian refugee who flees her country and seeks out Andrew and Sarah--a young, well-educated couple in suburban London. Ultimately a friendship blooms between Little Bee and Sarah--two disparate characters joined together by one tragic and haunting experience on a Nigerian beach.

I really liked this book! When I googled "Chris Cleave" after reading it, I was surprised to find the author is a man. Because of the two well-done female voices narrating the story, I had somehow just assumed the author was a woman.
