I'm glad Skeeter didn't end up with the guy.


Like many before, I didn't love that the author is a white woman. I think it's a great book premise, a good way to make white people look at themselves, but you can't know unless you've lived certain things. idk, I'm white too, and I thought the things that happened in the novel seemed plausible, but how would I know.
