I’m agreeing with pugmadkate and MommaJ on this one. I was bored with the book and unimpressed with the writing. But what bugged me the most was the poor writing of Southern dialect. Some writers do it very well but Stockett’s interpretation was pretty cliche, I thought. Half of my family is from Alabama so I know what I’m talking about in that respect.
