I don't know why I originally gave this book five stars. The more I think about it, the madder I get. Oh, it was entertaining, but I get really tired of "white people swooping In to save minorities while learning valuable lessons about themselves" stories. ...more

2018 Reading Challenge: Week 47 -A book where the main character (or author) is of a different ethnic origin, religion, or sexual identity than your own


2018 Popsugar Challenge: A book set in the decade you were born



While I liked the book, I wasn't as ga-ga over it as the rest of the world. I found it dragged in places and this is one of those extremely rare instances where I can say that I liked the movie better.

This book is INCREDIBLE. It's so well written, very moving, swings me to different moods, laughing, smiling, crying and even angry. I woke up at 1.30 last night and decided to read the book. Couldn't stop reading it until it finished.

I find racism topic interesting and hope Stockett will keep on writing in this topic since she experienced it herself in her childhood.

What would it have been like to live in the south during this time? An amazing story that makes you think about how people treat other people any where any time.
