I'm on a kick now where I'm reading books that are being made (or have been made) into movies before I go to see the movie. The Help was the first one on my list. This is a great novel. It's rather long, but completely worth the time.
The Help takes place in the early 1960's. One girl decides that people's attitudes towards their help, or colored people in general, isn't quite right. She decides to write a book on how "the help" are really treated in Jackon, Mississippi at that time, a very controversial thing to do.
Pick up this book, read it, and think about it.
