This blog...

I have made this blog for the sole purpose of keeping track of the books I have read. Some day I will look back and say "WOW! I sure do read a lot!"
For those of you that come across this blog, I hope you find it useful. It may help you find your next book, get a new perspective on a book you've already read, or at the very least, provide a new way for you to waste a few minutes of your day.

Little Bee by Chris Cleave


I really cannot say what I was expecting when I picked up this book, but I can definitely say that it was not this. I will not say much about this book because I want others to form their own opinions. I will, however, say that I was very disappointed. There were endless possibilities of where this story could have gone, the one the author chose would not have been mine!

I have similar feelings as when I finished The Time Traveler's Wife and wished the author would find a new profession. I am inclined to think the Chris Cleave should do the same. I know this may sound harsh, but his only other opinion would be to go out and find true horror stories to write about openly and stop hiding behind the veil of fiction. I could just as easily read the world news and history books...
