You will find this book hard to put down. Enjoyable, tense and revealing. A book club that is full of interesting relationahips. Sad and funny, with a lot of moral struggles...

This book is filled with intrigue, greed, corruption and the ethics of our own economic system.....it makes you think twice about how America's actions affect the rest of the world. Corporate activities around the world get revealed by a paid professional who worked for them...A great read...

A beautifully written story about a man's ultimate downfall and flight to Paris to redeem himself. A really fine story with lots of twists and turns to keep you interested.

The Help by Kathryn Stockett
The Help

I read this book when it was first published. What a brilliant story about the lives of black southern maids in white southern houses. What they had to deal with is to most people unbelieveable. What they did by exposing the hyprocacy of white southern families was heartwarming. A great read.
