The Help by Kathryn Stockett.
I love this book! It's so well written. I really appreciate when a writer makes me feel for the characters. The different perspectives told are so interesting to me. You can take a bunch of woman all from the same situations and have such different points of view and experiences. My absolute favorite part (I think, it's hard to just pick one) is the shit pie. Seriously, who hasn't wanted to do that to someone?! The Celia thing was weird until i found out what was going on, then I thought it was so cute. I was incredibly irritated with Elizabeth for being such a distant mom. I had a really hard time defending it with "that's how she was raised", she seemed so clueless about everything but she was a grown woman. Surely she should have known better. I think she didn't want to know better, she wanted to remain oblivious to any negativity. Yeah, no defense from me. I don't like her.
Read it. It's an awesome book!
