We just got word that Simon and Schuster, publishers of Little Bee by Chris Cleave (coming out in paperback Feb 16) is offering free books to the first 20 book clubs to choose Little Bee for the group. Find out how to enter at simonandschuster.com/littlebee

In case you aren't aware of this fabulous book, here is Jackie's review:

This book is painful and beautiful. Little Bee, a Nigerian girl who fled after the murder of her whole village by oil men, ends up in England searching for the two people she knows outside of Nigeria, two people who helped to spare her life once before. Her appearance back in Andrew and Sarah's life sets off a string of events that changes all of their lives forever--though forever is not as long for some of them as for others. There is horror (some of it graphic) and hope in this novel, and it's told in such a strong, fresh voice--you won't forget Little Bee and her story. Governments at their very worst, human beings at their very best and how they clash--it's haunting.

You can meet the author at our Colfax Avenue store on Tuesday, Feb 23 at 7:30 pm.
