Help Me Help You
It should be no surprise that I took a couple of books from my sis to read over the break.  I have The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, her last bookclub read, and The Help by Kathryn Stockett.  Based on comments from another GBC member and a writer-stylist friend, both of whom have read The Help, I decided to start with Stockett's work.  The story began in 1962 and through four chapters, I have read through Aibileen's and Minny's eyes.  While some of the characters are immediately dislikable, some already seem endearing, and I find myself wondering "what's next?"  Sis says she wants to be around when I discover the "Terrible Awful Thing" which was done.  Of course, now I'm really curious.
