The Help by Kathryn Stockett
 
Book Club Recommended
Insightful, Inspiring, Interesting
The story of a southern white woman secretly writing a book from the perspective of black maids about their relationships with their bosses.

Great book - you get attached to the characters, and admire the great risks they take to tell their stories.

Villa Incognito by Tom Robbins

Villa Incognito

A bit out there and twisted in a fun and fantastical way, but then what do you expect - it's by Tom Robbins. You either like him or you don't.

It made me never want to go to a circus. I liked the very end though....

Thirteen Reasons Why

This should be required middle school reading. Everyones actions have consequence - and teenagers take things in a very serious way.

A well written book, but very difficult to read. Pretty dark and graphic all the way through, but insightful to human nature.

The Shack by William Young

Everyone's God is different - whatever we need it to be. A little out there for me, but inspiring. Hard to read about the dark loss of a child.

One More River by N.E. Sartin

One More River

Interesting because we live in the area where the murder happened & know some of the ancestors of the characters, but it was slow moving and long reading. Not a page turner.
