Book Review of Little Bee (aka The Other Hand)

Little Bee (aka The Other Hand)
reviewed on + 3 more book reviews


I decided to pick up this book because of the unbelievable hype I saw everywhere...book shelves all over the place (the train station, kiosks in the mall) and all over Amazon and various other sites. When the little blurb on the back gave little information and left much to the imagination, I was immediately intrigued...and quickly disappointed. This book really did not go anywhere. The character development was not deep enough for me, the plot went all over the place, and the book was generally depressing. I felt I had to finish it, just to see if it went anywhere...but it definitely was not as wonderful as I expected, unfortunately.
