'The Help'

Remember remember in the month of June 1st, when in my previous post, one of the tagline of my boudouir's pics, stating that there's one novel that until today I haven't finished reading it? well... that novel is called " The Help", written by Kathryn Stockett. That novel, like what the review said - outstanding, immensely funny, very compelling, brilliant. Sometimes, whilst reading it, I just couldn't stop laughing-out-loud. Now I'm still on page 186 of 444, still long way to go. My fav characters will definitley the never give-up Ms. Skeeter & Outspoken Minny and her sarcasm. Can't wait to watch the movie! and here's the summary taken from the ImdB website's :

Storyline

Set in Mississippi during the 1960s, Skeeter (Stone) is a southern society girl who returns from college determined to become a writer, but turns her friends' lives -- and a small Mississippi town -- upside down when she decides to interview the black women who have spent their lives taking care of prominent southern families. Aibileen (Davis), Skeeter's best friend's housekeeper, is the first to open up -- to the dismay of her friends in the tight-knit black community. Despite Skeeter's life-long friendships hanging in the balance, she and Aibileen continue their collaboration and soon more women come forward to tell their stories -- and as it turns out, they have a lot to say. Along the way, unlikely friendships are forged and a new sisterhood emerges, but not before everyone in town has a thing or two to say themselves when they become unwittingly -- and unwillingly -- caught up in the changing times.
