I have a random lady on TikTok to thank for this book recommendation… good read! Loved the bees, the calendar daughters, the relationship between Rosaleen and Lily, how Lily found strength and love and courage from the calendar daughters she sought refuge with, and the mystery behind what happened to her mother.
