I hadn’t heard of The Help until about a month ago. Now, it resides in my mind as one of the best books I have ever read. It is rare that I am hooked on a book after only reading the first chapter, but Stockett’s ability to capture me as a reader (and everyone else I know who’s read this book) is amazing!

The Help begins with Aibileen, one of three voices in the novel. You quickly learn that Aibileen is a Southern black woman with a huge heart and a lot of spunk. While she wouldn’t dare speak to the white people she works for with disrespect, she doesn’t hold back in the chapters she narrates. She is bothered by the way Miss Leefolt, the white woman she works for, ignores her daughter, Mae Mobley, to worry about more important things, like her hair! Within the first chapter I wanted to cry and laugh. Cry because of the love Aibileen has for a white baby who yearns for her mother’s attention, and laugh because of Aibileen’s attitude and wisdom.

A second voice in The Help is Miss Skeeter, Miss Leefolt’s friend. Skeeter really wants to be a writer, but can’t find a job without having any professional writing experience. She is advised by Miss Stein, a publisher, to write about something meaningful, something that no one else will write about. This is when Skeeter is inspired to write a book about what it is like to be a black woman in Jackson, Mississippi working for a white family as “the help”. During this time in Jackson (the early 1960s), blacks were being treated as inferior to whites. While Skeeter has the idea to write the book from the help’s perspective, she is directed by Stein to interview at least a dozen black maids for the book to be a true account of what it’s like to be a black maid in Jackson. Due to the segregation of blacks and white at this time, these interviews obviously pose a problem and help drive the conflict throughout Stockett’s novel.

The third voice is Minny, Aibileen’s friend, who is also a black maid and who also contribute’s her sto

Simply put, this cable works perfectly, and the price can’t be beaten. I got myself 3 of these babies.

Love my SECOND Kindle – (unfortunately I seriously dropped my first Kindle & it could not be repaired). However, I travel a lot and its just the thing for airplanes, airports, cruise ships, etc. A few friends have a different readers – ugh – mine is by far the BEST. DFS

I love this watch! Does exactly what I wanted. The only suggestion is that it could be smaller! I am a small person and use the very last hole to fit snug. Need a smaller band.

The Defender is a great product and offers a much higher level of protection than any other case I’ve seen, but it’s not foolproof. I have probably dropped my iphone about 20 times since got it in Nov. However, on Christmas eve I had it laying in my lap and stood up. My iphone dropped to the tile floor and when I picked it up the LCD screen was white with blue and red lines running the length of the screen on the right side. I took it to a repair shop and had to have the screen replaced. I too have the oil slick issue but its not a big deal to me. The biggest problem is the reason that I have dropped it so much is that every time I have it in the belt clip and happen to bump the belt clip even with my arm or hand the phone will fall out of the clip. Since the screen replacement and the belt clip issue I just carry it in my pocket. I work construction and have pretty much ruined or broken every phone I’ve had, but thought that this case would maybe help this one survive. Sorry folks but the jury is still out.

I don’t understand why anyone would pay 10 to 20 times more for an HDMI cable. This one is perfect!

The portable friction mount is so much easier to use than the suction mount. It does not slide off the dash and can be stowed easily with the GPS. So glad I bought this and would recommend everyone buy one.
