The Help.

Alrighty, this book hasn't been a huge priority for me, but I'm slowly getting through the book and enjoying it overall. I'm far from done, but will try to focus on finishing. I'm going to answer a few discussion questions I found online. I'll answer more specific questions next cycle.

1. Which character do you relate to the most?
Thus far I relate most to Skeeter, because of her bookish ways and uniqueness both in appearance and thought.

2. What part of 1960s life in Mississippi do you find most shocking?
At this point in the book I find the treatment of the hired help the most shocking. A complete lack of compassion and respect-- they even believe these women shouldn't be able to use the same bathroom.

I also took a good reads quiz on the first 17 chapters of The Help and got 7 out of 7.
