THE HELP IS AMAZING!


So Im excited to see that, the book i am currently reading (THE HELP) is being made into a film. the book is about set in Mississippi during the 1960s and follows one young southern girl’s dream of becoming a writer. Her name is Skeeter (played by Emma Stone) and subject matter, unfortunately, is controversial and involves interviewing the many black women who are employed by wealthy southern families as caretakers. During her interviews, Skeeter forms a friendship with one of the black women named Aibileen. Despite everything they risk in continuing their relationship, the two women forge ahead, bringing new stories into the fold as more women come forward to turn this small Mississippi town on its head. i am only about ten Chapters in, and i already love it, so I'm kinda nervous and excited to see how the film pans out. So if ya haven't checked it out yet, i say get to a damn library and check it out.

"THE HELP" by Kathryn Stockett.
