I love bees, I love honey, I love the flowers that attract the bees. I didn't realize how many books I own that have "Bee" in the title or is bee related. I decided to start reading a little Bee collection.

The Enlightenment of Bees by Rachel Linden
The Music of Bees by Eileen Garvin
The Murmur of Bees by Sofía Segovia
The Beekeeper's Promise by Fiona Valpy
The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd
The Beekeeper of Aleppo by Christy Lefteri
The History of Bees by Maja Lunde
The Honey Bus: A Memoir of Loss, Courage and a Girl Saved by Bees by Meredith May

Janice | 282 comments I love bees too and try to plant flowers that will feed them. :) And I also let my dandelions grow even though my neighbors view them as weeds.

Hahaha. I am all about the dandelions. I have a bunch and so happy they are thriving.

I finished The Enlightenment of Bees. It was a light and heavy read. I would classify it as a chick-lit but it had a very thought provoking side- poverty in poorer countries. There was a "finding yourself" tone that had great messages.

I love bees and try to grow plants that lure them! I even mow around clover patches in the yard so the bees can enjoy the clover. They are the greatest pollinators! If we lose the bees, the rest of the animal kingdom, including humans, won't survive very long.💖🌹🐝💞

I collect Teddy Bears and have a number of them with honey pots and bees attached. Very cute!

I love teddy bears. They sound very adorable.

My parents are novice bee keepers and I find it so fascinating. I am learning about their behaviors and patterns.
