The Help~ Kathryn Stockett

I've been invited, by my friend Kimberly, to join a local bookclub. The club met yesterday at Our Place Bakery Cafe' in College Park Georgia. I decided to incorporate this blog in hopes that friends far and not so near can join us so, I'm dusting her off and inviting you to come along for the read (corny, I know but I couldn't resist).

Our 1st book, The Help by Kathryn Stockett, was chosen by Sharon of the tentatively named Savy interpretations Book Club. Our desire is to have read and discussed it by August 21st so we may enjoy viewing it together on the silver screen.

The Book is set in 1962 Mississippi where unspoken understood roles for women lie.
Aibileen, Skeeter and Minny, different in aspects grave and small, find commonalities beyond their double x make-up to face the adversaries of their time.

I invite you to join us as we delve into the lives of these three Mississippi women...
