The Help by Kathryn Stockett

The Help by Kathryn Stockett

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book was amazing! It is one of the best books I've read since the Other Boleyn Girl. It was touching, moving, and inspirational. You really feel like you in the homes of the white ladies viewing it through their "help" If you want to know what it's like to be a black maid living in 1960's Jackson, Mississippi, pick up this book.

I decided to read this book because the movie was coming to the theater. It was rather enjoyable and funny. It was nice to see a male main character so in touch with his emotions and feelings. It was also nice to take an inside look of the thoughts of an older gentleman. If you enjoyed the notebook, you'll enjoy this book!
