The Bee Tree received a 4 star review from Krystal on the Live to Read blog this week to follow up on her review of The Ruin. The link to the review is:
Live to Read . I've nearly given up on the newspapers as a place to let readers know about the books. Even in my own community of Bend Oregon, the only books that attract attention of the page editors are reviews from mainstream publishers with million dollar advertising campaigns and books already on the NY times best seller lists. But the people who spread the word about the vital world of new ideas and books that are being written by the next generation of authors are the book bloggers.
Several hundred avid readers, collectors, lifelong students of literature, homebound reviewers, you name it, spend their spare time, blogging books. Some have a genre they pursue. Some range far afield. Some manage huge data bases of reviews, reading lists, etc. such as Goodreads.
I invite you to click on the Live to Read blog and check out Krystal's review of The Bee Tree and The Ruin and then go ahead and see what she has to say about the many other books she has reviewed. She indicates she has read several thousand in her short life span.
My best wishes,
Kenneth Fenter
