The Bees by Laline Paull
4.0

This was one heck of a ride! It takes until around the 50% mark to really pick up action-wise, but the first 50% focuses on introducing you to the structure of the hive and the different groups of bees and their functions. It has strong dystopian vibes, and half the time I was trying to decide which things were really bee things, and which things the author made up for the sake of the story. It was super weird at times, and really just a fascinating read, I definitely need to research bees now.
