The Help

I just finished a wonderful book!  I must share. This book is the fabulous Kathryn Stockettt's The Help.

Click her for the synopsis  http://www.kathrynstockett.com/stockett-synopsis.htm
I loved these characters, I loved the settings, and I can actually remember when times were segregated. Luckily my parents brought me up color-blind, but I did still see much. Especially on trips through the South during the 1960's.
This novel is well written (sometimes hard to read some character's language skills, but the style actually makes it more believable and entertaining).
It was a good read. Even though fictional, it was realistic and believable. A keeper. I hope you add it to your list.
