I am absolutely floored by all the top reviews on goodreads being negative, claiming that this book is feel-good, white savior trash - you really couldn’t be reading the same book I just read and think it’s about white people saving black people.
There’s not much else to say. I remember watching the movie a few years ago and I think that’s how The Help ended up on my to-read list. I plan to rewatch the movie soon!
