The prose is great, and I really enjoyed having different perspectives every once in a while, as the tone and style changes with Skeeter, Minny, and Abileen. The main negative I have is that the ending seemed a little rushed, and I wish that it didn't end!

I plan on writing a short article soon about this book, specifically regarding whether Ms. Stockett has agency to write this book as a white woman talking from a perspective of a black woman. I have seen plenty of arguments happening regarding this topic, and want to throw my two cents in.
