Description:
When Lorabeth decided to fall in love, she knew it wasn't going to be easy. Unlike the bees that she trained, boys were strange, unpredictable creatures. Since the most popular girl in school, Hedda, receives love letters on a weekly basis, Lorabeth thought that taking a peek at those letters would help... or perhaps not. Lorabeth and Hedda are united by a strange deadly fire and a swarm of encroaching predators that seem to threaten the school of apiology. Will Lorabeth be able to find true love and save her school from these mysterious enemies? And what does a coat rack, yellow ribbon, hypnotist, and tapioca have to do with it?

Caith seems mischievous--my interest just shot up. A hypnotist fits your world, especially one like him, and you were tricky, tricky with that chapter title. Very curious to see where this goes!

Hedda? Allergic to boys? I finally got around to reading the next few chapters of my favourite Figment story! (I had been offline for a couple of days.) The mysterious visiter is a hypnotist? Seems fitting enough, but altogether surprising. Great job! I'm looking forward to what happens next!

I want an OHMYGOOODNESSGRACIOUS button :) I was totally relating to Lorabeth's heart hurting... so that was all real and now i'm all happy over the hypnotist boy. A boy! I was expecting an older fellow. This is fantastic. I cannot wait for more!!!!!

I just am so delighted with this story in every way – the characters – the mystery – the magical world you have created – and your AMAZING writing and imagery – AH ***sigh***
Pg 22 - Atticus’s usual cafeteria company was usually – drop one of those “usual” references.
Lorabeth’s mouth wobbled into a tiny smile – brilliant!
Please keep writing – this is wonderful.

Pg 19 : Lorabeth ducked (w)hen the carrier door swung open – Silly Nemesis – didn’t pick that up – the battle field narrows even more. Nemesis: 194,567, Me: now 223. HA!!!
Pg 20 Allergic to boys – priceless!
Kim, thanks for the great read – and I will await diligently until after you meet your deadlines – go kill ‘em (pun intended) – for some more great B&B updates
