Let me add my voice to the thousands of others who praise this book. I chose not to see the movie before reading the book, so now I'm ready to see it. This is one of those books where you grow to love (or despise) the characters and seeing the movie will help keep them "alive" a bit longer.

You'd have to be living under a rock to not have heard of the book, so I won't spend time on the plot, but will simply say THANK YOU, KATHRYN STOCKETT for a thoroughly engrossing novel and for handling the subject with such refreshing candor and sensitivity. Please write more!
