Women who worked for change while continuing to operate within the "system." They demonstrated the strength, risk-taking, and perseverance that is lacking in our younger generations. I found this book both inspirational and heartwarming.
Wonderful Book! November 18, 2009
Pamela Roberson (New Haven, CT)
I absolutely loved this book! I was a child in rural NC in the late 60's early 70's, and I do remember separate schools and places that were designated that only "white people" or "black people" went to. I think Kathryn Stockett captured that time period perfectly. I loved most of the characters but I do think that Celia's character should have been given a more time towards the end of the book.
excellent in CD audio version November 18, 2009

This is a really good book. It's also one that is excellent in the audio version. While listening I keep forgetting that it's a book being read and feel like I'm just hearing a story told by three different people. The actors are fantastic. Also, the skill of the writer shines out because the dialog is so completely natural. It's hard to put away. The story is moving and compelling. If you have a long car ride take along this CD and it will pass very quickly.
