The Help

So we're already two and a half months into 2012. So far it has been a pretty good year for me. My job has been going particularly well. I've also been reading a whole lot more.

I finally got around to reading and watching The Help. Both the book and the movie were amazing!

 I could totally relate to the heroine "Skeeter".

There were several hilarious moments that made me laugh out loud. Like the chocolate pie... ;D

And Celia... Her story made me cry.

The colors and the clothes in the movie were fun. The excessive amount of Coke drinking made me thirsty.......

Minny, the one in the middle was so funny! :D

 It also had its sad moments... I came very close to crying several times.
The book was amazing as well, I read it on the way to work and back every day. It was so hard to set it down. 
I want to own both of them, definitely a re-read AND a re-watch for me.
