Little Bee

I'm almost finished my book club book for February. It's a novel called "Little Bee" by Chris Cleave. It's about a refugee from Nigeria who ends up in London. She works really hard to learn "The Queen's English". I hope some of you will give it a try! It's an interesting story with great writing.

Comment by Sunil Jogdeo yesterday: Reading helps to set our own VISION and MISSION...Just try it out.

Comment by Sunil Jogdeo on March 27, 2013 at 4:23: hi Joe, thanx for this sharing..i think mystic means `skill`..it would be quite interesting to read this book, i guess. You may like to share some more details like book price and publication. Keep writing book reviews.

Comment by joe on March 27, 2013 at 3:38: I read "Mystic masseur" by V.S Naipaul . This book exposed a country man who climbs from the ignorance and his lack of knowledge , to being one of the most prolific politician in the county .

Comment by Sunil Jogdeo on March 11, 2013 at 12:00: Dear Hyunju, welcome to this group. Its a good news for the group that you wish to share your views on the books you have read. We are sure it will help the group a lot. Keep writing.

Comment by Hyunju on March 11, 2013 at 0:28: Hello, guys. I've just become a member of this group. I'm kind of excited I can share books I've read and I am now reading. I try to learn English through reading 'cause I can't take many chances to communicate with people in English. These days, I just finished a novel for teenagers and started a new book titled 'Angel Inside', a self-help book.

Comment by sara on February 15, 2013 at 5:09: Ok, Thanks for accepting this idea. We can start with a short story I Put here. I would be glad if dear members read it carefully and discuss over it with any idea or conclusion they may get from the text. As a teacher I've found it very useful in improving reading and writing.

Comment by Sunil Jogdeo on February 14, 2013 at 13:06: sara, very good idea..lets see how it can be taken forward..you may suggest some link which is worth reading and lets appeal group to enter into discussion after giving opportunity to read and share. Thank you for this.

Comment by sara on February 14, 2013 at 12:24: Hi Mr. Sunil. Thanks for devising such useful group. I have an idea: i think it would be better that all members focus on a certain reading material to discuss about. i suggest members select an on-line story for example and put its link in this group so that all members can get it. for one week or more members read that and then discuss over it. as the material is the same for all i think the result of discussion may be much better.

Comment by Sunil Jogdeo on February 6, 2013 at 13:25: yes, the things have not been easy there for the people. HOPE is the only word for them. Things are becoming some what bearable for the people now with process of democracy on, things would improve. We just cannot imagine the life there during last many years. there is one more book titled `Bread Winner` which also talks about a family that faced tough life during the taliban rule in afghan.I will write some thing on it next time perhaps.
