Hello, fellow readers! Today I have for you my take on the bestselling novel The Help by Kathryn Stockett. This gem saved me from Pride and Prejudice, which I just couldn’t bring myself to read on past chapter 23. But you know all about that already with my post about boring books. The Help takes place in 1962 in Jackson, Mississippi and centers around three main characters, Aibileen, Miss Skeeter and Minny. The three band together, after much thought and deliberating on Aibileen and Minny’s part, to write (and hopefully get published) a book of stories about what it is like for a black maid to work for a white family in the heart of the south during the segregation era.
