I know we all jumped the gun with writing about what happened at the end of the book... but officially, week 4 is now done!!! I absolutely loved the book. It was a very easy read, and easy to follow. I really got wrapped up in all of the characters. I know a book is good, when I truly grow to dislike or love certain characters, and that definitely happened in this book.
Celia, I could not stand whatsoever... and I absolutely loved Aibileen and even more so, I loved Minny!!! The characters just pulled me in to this story, and made me truly understand what it was like being "help" in that day and age. It also showed me how it was for even just supporters of equal rights... You were almost looked down upon more if you believed in equal rights. It is truly amazing how far we have come... however, it still amazes me that certain people are still racist and biased in the way they think.
Even though most of the time I don't like endings that just hang... but this book, I felt good about it. I felt like everyone was in the right place, and things were going to work out for the best.
Let's move on to the next book... Love You More.... Looking forward to it!
Do you know the author of "Love You More:? 79 titles were listed on my Kindle.
ReplyDeleteOkay, went back to previous posts and found the author is Lisa Gardner. Thanks, I got it.
ReplyDeleteYou're right Jen, week 4 is now officially here. Was it Celia or Hilly that you couldn't stand. I felt bad for Celia but she has an understanding and loving husband so she'll be ok. It's Hilly that was the mean conniving deceitful woman. Really full of herself. Just wondering.
ReplyDeleteJust let me know the schedule and hopefully Lauren will come aboard. We'd love to have her.
oooops... it was Hilly.... I liked Celia! I am downloading the book today, so I will put up a schedule no later than tomorrow morning!
