So much happens in this book, and there are so many stories told, that it makes for a very good group discussion.... The book itself was wonderfully written, I felt disappointed when it was done that I can't visit with Aibeleen and Minny and Skeeter more.. I'm going to miss them!

Our group enjoyed this book. It was scary, images that will stay with us for a bit. The characters are well developed, and the story is different, and fun even though it's very creepy.

My only complaint was the length. I wasn't able to fit it all in-- this is a great book though and well worth the read!

I have to admit that it made me think. Didn't love the characters, but it was interesting and made me want to see how it all turned out.

I liked this book-- the writing was very good.. Not sure I understood the point of what was being told until we discussed the book at our meeting. Was enjoyed by most of the group.

Although the topic is difficult, this is a well written, believable story. Lisa Genova very successfully allows us to see Alzheimer's disease from the perspective of it's victim. Alice is a great character, very well thought out and easy to relate to. Our book club spent a lot of time discussing all aspects of this book-- we all enjoyed it, in spite of the tough story it had to tell.
