This novel has been compared in reviews to the Handmaids Tale and The Hunger Games. While I saw no connection with this book and those other two mentioned The Bees is a well written novel and enjoyable to read. It is timely with all the concerns about the dwindling bee population and does make one look at bees more affectionately. It is the story of a worker bee who wants to lay eggs and only the Queen Bee is supposed to lay eggs. The worker bee has many adventures gathering nector out in the world and in trying to keep her egg alive. It has an interesting human connection in the beginning and ending that ties up the story nicely. This is not my normal genre so probably won't make my top ten list for the year but was an enjoyable enough read.
