The help

Just finished reading "The Help" byKatheryn Stockett. Read it in about two days and it just pulled me in. She completely sucked me in to early 60s Mississippi. For the most part, the characters are compelling and human, although I did find the villain too one dimensional. She's not only racist, but will shove her mother in a nursing home and attempt to ruin your life for embarrassing her. I'm sure there are people like her out there, but she just stuck out a bit in an otherwise well drawn world. But besides that, really loved it
