Here Is the Beehive by Sarah Crossan

4.0

I loved this short novel by Sarah Crossan so much I finished it in one sitting. The novel is a glimpse into the life of the other woman, and also a look at life after the death of a loved one. There are so many layers to this novel, and reading it as I am just after a bereavement, it really touched me. I think it's beautifully written, the little details of the description of different feelings and emotions are stunning, they frequently brought a lump to my throat. The characters are unlikeable but so real that you can't help feeling for them, it's one of the things that make this book so brilliant, it's unapologetically messy and human.
