I don’t read a lot of what might get categorized as “chick lit”, but I found this story about a 14 year-old girl who finds family and community in a place she might never have imagined to be sweet and an easy read. It wasn’t challenging, and I didn’t find it especially moving or lovely, but sometimes something nice to read and satisfying hits the spot. ( ) I used this book for tutoring a few years ago and the main thing I remember is that we called it SLoB. I also remember a horrible scene where the main character had to kneel on grits. Also, I remember it being about a family of Black women in the American South. As I think I said in my review of [book:Tangerine], I always feel a little uncomfortable reading books about a white character inhabiting a non-white world for the sake of that character learning about life. It's not that these kinds of books are always bad reads, it's just that the convention seems really worn out and can be...what's the word? Exoticising? Other-ing? If I were still taking undergard American Lit classes, I would maybe tackle this subject. But as I am now a Library School student, I will just say that I wouldn't enthusiastically recommend it. Grieving over the loss of her mother and the relentless abuse of her father, Lily goes in search of clues about her mother, hoping to find answers in a place she thinks her mother may have been connected with. During her quest, she finds herself having to examine her attitudes about interracial relationships. She learns about beekeeping and the black Madonna, both bodies of knowledge that contribute to her understanding of key roles that females play in the social order
Lily is a wonderfully petulant and self-absorbed adolescent, and Kidd deftly portrays her sense of injustice as it expands to accommodate broader social evils. At the same time, the political aspects of Lily's growth never threaten to overwhelm the personal.
