Book Review: The Help

I read The Help by Kathryn Stockett. This novel is fiction and it has to do with one brave girl named Skeeter who dreams of being a big time journalist. She gathers up maids to reveal the truth about how it is to work for white families and she takes each of their stories and publishes it into a book. I read this book because my neighbor recommended it to me. My strength while reading this book were that it was pretty easy to read but my weakness was focusing and trying not to getting psyched out because the book was long. I would compare this book to The Last Waltz by G.G. Vandagriff because I was also recommended to read this book for a school assignment and write reviews each time I finished a chapter. My opinion about this book is that it was an inspiring story with wise people trying to make a difference. I would recommend this book to my friends because it's very readable.
