Yes, isn't it great?! Enjoy the rest of it! I look forward for more by this author...
I have already read this book and I loved it too. Easy to read as the story was believable too. Hopefully, this writer will have more books published that we can enjoy. I've finally finished the non-fiction book "Out Of Captivity" about the three U S men that were kept captive in the Columbian Jungle for five years, constantly on the move. A very moving book. I've just started "Dear Fatty," by Dawn French, the English actress that played "The Vicar Of Dibley," and it's very funny.

I just started The Help yesterday as well. It has believable characters that I care about. Not far enough into it yet to give it a thumbs up but it looks promising...

I finished The Help about a week ago. I found it hard to put down. Great book!
After reading 100 pages a night, I finished THE HELP at 2:30 this morning. Excellent debut novel from Kathyrn Stockett! The story follows three extraordinary women living in Jackson, MS, during the 1960's and their clandestine attempt to spread a message regarding white women and their black maids. The book is full of both pathos and humor. It's all about relationships, both working and personal. At the end of the book is a personal message from Kathryn Stockett sharing her own experience growing up in Mississippi. It's a story unto itself.

Great book! I really enjoyed it.
"The Help" was my cruise book and I thought it was a wonderful book.

What a fantastic book. I read it this past summer and there are times when it pops into my head. I know this will be a re-read.

I have to agree with everyone on "The Help", it was a fantastic read with characters that seemed so real and you can't help but care about them.
I finally started reading the book over the weekend, and like everybody else am enthralled. I still have the women's voices in my head...
