Book Review: Elizabeth LOVED “The Help” by Kathryn Stockett

The Help by Kathryn Stockett

(From Elizabeth) For some reason I am one of the last of our staff to read THE HELP by Kathyrn Stockett. I grew up in the South and therefore a number of people were eager to hear what I thought about the book. Why did I wait so long? I have no idea because I loved every word of this book!

So many of the situations prompted memories of my childhood–I was substituting names in the book for names of people I had known growing up in North Carolina.

It is truly one of best books I have read this year. As I hand sell it I suggest that the reader not start it if there is something important they need to do in the next day or two. Let’s hope that Kathryn Stockett is hard at work on her next story.
