It was an amazing book and one of the best I've read in awhile. It was the perfect book to make me begin to carve out some reading time each night again!

Skeeter Phelan wants to be a writer and after talking to an editor in New Y ork she decides to write a book about black maids in her community. I really liked the maids Aibileen and Minny but didn't really care about Skeeter which stopped me from giving this book a higher rating.

Well. It turned out way better than I thought it would. At first the language got to me, but I quickly overcame it. I found myself feeling for everyone in the story. A must read for everyone, especially in this day and age.
Loved this!
I listened to the audio book version of this and it was amazing. I loved it. Now I regret waiting so long to read this novel. I just wish there was an epilogue at the end.
4.5 stars. Entertaining book, and there was lots to discuss at book club.
I hear the audio book is like a play and very well done.
