It will be difficult to write all that you will experience when and after reading this novel. I have sent this book to many friends. The words flow as if you are present with the characters engaged in conversation. The content brings reality into your heart. Everything I thought I understood about American history became a grain of sand as this tale is told. The art of writing in “voice” is rare. Thanks to Ms. Stockett for bringing this story of truth to us with skill that allows the heartbreaking truth of life as it took place in this country 30 years ago to be heard in ways that makes this book so much more than fiction,. I have had the gift of receiving help from “mother’s helper” with the six children in my care. We were two mothers, not household servant. Those tales could only have taken place without my knowledge. Each and every child benefited from the nurturing received from the woman who cared. Please read this remarkable book and accept the truth as written. The best is that at long last a novel is so well written it revives the art of writing that has not been seen in far too long. Congratulations to Kathryn Stockett. I hope this is not a one time book from this author, get it , read it, savor it, then share it. Then it becomes very easy to know that all continues to exist today. P.J.Today

Fascinating and riveting novel, chockerblock full of vivid historical detail about life in a second rate traveling circus during the depression in the United States. It was a real glimpse of Americana because of the author’s meticulous research. All the elements of a great read: love, desire, action, humor, murder, and a totally surprising and superb ending. The true heroine is a wonderful elephant named Rosie.

This steam vac has spin brushes and the spray and vacuum with rug shampoo. It did a great job on my cream carpets.I purchased a much more expensive steam vac without the spin scrub feature and it did not do nearly as good a job. This was a great value for me. It was inexpensive to buy, worked great. This also has upholstery attachment.
Haven’t tried that yet. I rate this a winner.

I really love my Kindle — it is my favorite toy. I’m a voracious reader and enjoy reading all sorts of books from mysteries to biography, action-adventure, history, and current events. While I love getting books from my public library, they don’t always have what I want and I hate being without something good to read when traveling or when snowed in at home. Being able to download a new purchase (even slowly due to our rural location) is a real luxury.

The Kindle is easy to use and seemed a natural way to read after only a couple of chapters.

Probably because of how stupid it is. It’s been years since I read it, but I can sum it up for you. It follows the experiences of a spoiled rotten dumbass rich kid with no drive, no motivation, no goals, no self respect. Why? Because he’s never worked a day in his life and expects the world to feel sorry for him because he has teenage angst. This kid could be considered the orginal emo without the make up. Yeah he shows signs of schitzophreina, but that really doesn’t make him more compelling or pitful. Bottom line, this is the saga of a self centered little bastard incapable of feeling any emotion for anyone save perhaps his little sister. It’s not timeless, the story teaches nothing, but creates a model of an idiot. I’ll say this though, if you are a parent and you’re kid turns out like this kid, you have failed as a parent. Mabye that’s the point of the book, but I doubt it.

The book is overhyped by the hippie crowd because they can relate to the character. As in they’re spoiled rotten rich little idiots who have never worked a day in their life and are looking for hand outs. That’s the description of the main character and the synopisis of the book. This is probably why the book has been banned so much, because it’s an insipid self centered, apathetic mockery of the human experience. A guide to living for the weak minded so called elite masses.

Just what I needed! Only downfall is that the outer rubber collects hair and lint – oh well, atleast my phone is safe.
