Skeeter and Minny were by far my favorite characters. Skeeter because she was determined to make a difference, to represent this women who had no voice, and acted civil for a time when it was unacceptable. I loved Minny because she provided amusement and a real glimpse into what life was life for African Americans in the south during that time in America.
It's not a proud history, it's something we'd rather not talk about, but I thought this book really gave you a chance to experience it while laughing, crying and the works. Absolutely loved it and would certainly recommend it.

The movie is actually a little cleaner than the book (if I remember correctly) and I really enjoyed it.
