If you have a best friend and you're secretly in love with their boyfriend and don't know what to do next, you should take solace in Kathe Koja's newest novel, Kissing the Bee. This book is excellent.
Dana is conflicted because she never said anything to her BF Avra about how she was in love with Emil. Then Avra asked him out and Dana had to keep her secret FOREVER.
But then....Emil reveals the fact that all of this time, he has been harboring secret feelings for Dana. Yeah!! They can finally be together.
Except...there is the problem of the girlfriend and best friend. That is a pretty significant roadblock in a relationship.
Throughout the novel, Dana is researching bees for her biology project. Koja expertly interjects non-fiction bee text to help propel the story along, and when it comes together, it makes a masterpiece of a novel about making the choices that count.
Get it. Read it. Find a new respect for winged creatures, both hearts in love and bees!!
