Great Help discussion


We had such a great discussion last night. Abby--thanks for sharing your personal connection to this book, and for digging up the civil rights timeline.
Did everyone get their questions answered? If you want to continue the discussion, post a comment!
I know it seems incongruous, but I've put a photo of Berlin at the top of this blog post, sent by Lisa who was in Berlin to see the events around the 20th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall. Looking forward to hearing more about this, hopefully at our next meeting.
Helen, we missed you, but appreciate your thoughtfulness in staying home when you weren't feeling well.
I'm looking forward to next month and The Girls from Ames. Stay tuned for more info on that evening.

The Help

I just finished reading The Help--and can't wait to discuss it. Per our leader Abby's request, please come prepared with at least one or two questions that you really want to talk about. We'll put them in a bowl (or hat, or whatever), and pull them out to discuss.
See you next Monday.
