Lily's dad, T. Ray, is an abusive, rude man who hates everything and everyone and Lily is tried of it.
One of the few belonging's that Lily has of her mother is a photo of Mary- who is coloured in the photo- with an address on the back. So Lily goes looking.
The address is to a bee farm, with 3 sisters living on it- May, June and August- who run a bee farm. But living with coloured people might change Lily's life in more ways then one.

This book was a good book....for adults.
I found this book super boring. I couldn't relate to any part of any of the characters lives. The characters were interesting. Just totally unrateable.
I really did not like all the religious stuff in the book. I don't think anyone would move into a house and practise their religion almost right away. It was weird.
The time line of this book was interesting. Black people had rights, but white people did not like them. I really found it interesting.
Their was lots of conflict, symbolism and imagery, but no suspense. I knew the ending of this book about half way though. It was extremely predictable.
However, the book was still good. It was not a suspenseful book, it was a book about conflict. Personally, I like suspenseful books better, but that's just me.
3.75 out of 5 stars
