About Bees in June by Elizabeth Bass Parman
Bees in June is a hope-filled novel of grief, resilience, and quiet magic. In 1969, Rennie Hendricks is reeling from the loss of her infant son and trapped in a failing marriage. Taking a job at the local diner, she rediscovers her love of cooking and begins to imagine a new life for herself. At the same time, her beloved Uncle Dixon reminds her of a long-forgotten family wisdom: tell the bees everything.
As the hives begin to glow and guide her toward safety, Rennie wonders if her late Aunt Eugenia’s bees hold a magic strong enough to help her heal—and maybe even point the way home. Perfect for fans of Sarah Addison Allen, Margaret Renkl, and Rachel Linden.
Also by Elizabeth Bass Parman
The Empress of Cooke County brims with mother-daughter tension, beauty parlor gossip, and one shocking turn of events. In 1960s Tennessee, thirty-eight-year-old Posey Jarvis—self-appointed “empress” of Spark—clings to Jackie Kennedy glamour, hidden gin, and dreams of lost love, while her daughter Callie Jane longs to escape small-town life, an unwanted engagement, and her mother’s iron grip.
Set against the backdrop of a gossipy Southern town, this charming novel explores love, family, and the courage it takes to choose your own path. Perfect for fans of Fried Green Tomatoes.
Please note: Refunds or ticket transfers are only available up to 48 hours before the event.
