The Wedding Bees is a romp of a novel, designed to be read for pure pleasure.” (The New Zealand Herald)

The Wedding Bees is a gentle tale of love, honey, manners and new beginnings. Another charming and witty story in the style the author has made her own.” (Graham Beattie, Beattie's Book Blog)

I have read all but one of Sarah Kate Lynch’s wonderful books and I adore her writing. I also had the honor of meeting her when she came to LA and it was a thrill. I would much rather have the chance to meet this talented, smart, funny and beautiful author (Sarah Kate) before I met ANY celebrity. It was one of the best days ever.
The Wedding Bees, just like all of SKL’s books, has a bit of magic running through it. Sugar is a lovely southern woman that moves from city to city with her bees. She has a bit of a quirky personality, and I would love her as a friend. Upon moving to NY, she begins to work her magic on her new neighbors. There are enough summaries of the story that I won’t bore you with that. However, I will say that I adored EVERY character in the book and it’s hard to say if I loved one more than the other. Ruby and Nate were probably my favorite, if I had to choose. George, the “doorman” was also lovely. Theo… a true prince. We also met Sugar’s family, which was probably the saddest part of the book. Even the bees were interesting!
What I love about Sarah Kate’s writing is that she transports you into the book. I could picture Sugar’s garden, I could taste Nate’s treats, and I could even feel the sadness of Ruby’s apartment. I now have a crazy urge to begin investigating honey! I also feel a need to go to NY and visit Alphabet City! Sarah Kate always has a ribbon of food in all of her books as well, which can leave the reader hungry.
I recommend EVERY one of SKL’s books. My personal favorite was Eating with the Angels. It SHOULD be a movie, and I tell anyone that will listen. Next I would recommend House of Daughters and then, On Top of Everything. Finally, Dolce di Love, Blessed are the Cheesemakers AND By Bread Alone are great reads as well.
