Wow. I read this book this week, and was stunned. It is a beautiful window into the way things were in the early 60s. No wonder I had to wait for months to get it from the library.
I am sure many others have explained more about the plot so I won't. Loved it.

I could not put this book down. It was incredible. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is because I didn't particularly love the end. I wanted to know more about what happened to specific characters that I had gotten attached to!

You'll probably like this book if you would have been the person with help. You probably won't like this book if you would have been the help. If you're in the mood for a feel good story about a mammy and the vapid white girl she's forced to pretend she loves while her own child(ren) have no one to take care of them, watch Gone with the Wind and save yourself a few hours.

I actually got the audiobook format of this title as a gift. If you haven't heard it, do yourself a favor and buy it. The readers do an excellent job of bringing the characters to life for you, and I think I heard nuances that I might have missed in print.
Whether you take my advice or simply read the print version of this book, by all means read it. I have not read a book this good in several years.

I wish I had known that the author had written from her memories and not from research. I grew up in that era in a nice upper middle class area but even I would tell you that the civil rights movement was NOTHING like the author portrayed! I am offended by her laziness in not doing research and I wish I could get my money back. This book makes those times seem like an inconvenience and that offends me, too. I know I am in the minority; all my friends love the book. I don't care, I hated it. ... Read More
