#7 - The Help

I finished this book in February and thought I had posted about it... but there is not post.  So, here goes.

Several people had mentioned this book so I gave it a try.  LOVED IT.  I listened to this one through audible.com, and with the different voices the story is told in, audio seems the perfect choice.  This was a good follow up to Roots... picking up where it left off.

This very insightful look at white and black society in the South during the  60's was eye-opening.  I found listening about the world I was born into (how can the 60's now be historical fiction?!?) particularly fascinating.  Hats off to brave people everywhere who change history!
