I think The Invention of Wings is even better than The Secret Life of Bees, especially since it is based on real people, the Grimke Sisters.

Just read Saving Cee-Dee Honeycutt by Beth Hoffman which reminded me of the Secret Life of Bees.

Her nonfiction book “dance of the dissident daughter” was very fascinating to me and inspiring
