What I'm Reading Now

I am now in the process of reading Little Bee.  I have never once in my life flipped to the back of a book to see how it ends (unlike someone I know) but I might have to do that with this one.  There is so much mystery surrounding the contents of the book that it's driving me to distraction.  I can't enjoy or even concentrate on the current story line because I'm so anxious to know what it is the author is hiding.  It's certainly well written and intriguing though.  We'll see how I feel by the end
