Last year my Nana gave me a book to read, it was The Help by Kathryn Stockett. I couldn't put it down! I was so intruiged by the writing and in shock that our country used to be in that state of chaos and prejudice. I loved reading about Skeeter's ambition to buck the system and Abilene's calm nature in the midst of wrong doing. Minne was such a delightful character to read, her spunk and no-nonsense attitude kept me turning the pages.
Last night My Aunt Tammy, Kelsey, Rhonda, Neeley and I had a girls night out with dinner and a movie. We went and saw Hollywood's version of The Help. I was very abrehensive about seeing the movie, as cute as it looked, the book was just so good and movies have a tendency of ruining books sometimes. I will proudly say they did a GREAT job with the movie. For obvious time issues they could not put in every single detail of the book but included enough that it was a full story and depiction of what the book was. Completely impressed! I think Emma Stone is adorable as Skeeter and Bryce Dallas Howard is despicable as Hilly Holbrooke. I highly recommend it to any and everyone!
