book club!

i just finished reading the help by kathryn stockett.
i thought it was very appropriate that i finished it today, martin luther king jr day. this whole book screams civil rights in the 60's and it had me absolutely HOOKED. so many people told me i would love this book and they were completely correct! the story is told from the perspectives of 3 different women who work together to write a book about maids working for white families. it is heartbreaking (i cried more than once), hilarious, witty, and entertaining all in one.
now that i'm finished i'm going to start a completely different book:
which apparently has been banned by several places...which makes me even more excited to read it to see what all the fuss is about.
happy reading!
