Although, it's not scheduled for release in theaters until August (dangit!) The Help was my favorite summer read from last year!
Hearing my excitement, not to mention concern when I first saw the trailer for the summer release of the movie version, my 17 year-old is now reading it, too.
Frankly, I grew very, very fond of Skeeter, Aibileen, Minny and even Hilly (sort of) and I read Kathryn Stockett's awesome book in 2 days (for me, that's quick) so, yeah, I was a little concerned about the casting on this one.
Until, I saw the trailer:
Thanks to Emma Stone, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer and Bryce Dallas Howard's fantastic teaser, August cannot get here quick enough.
In the meantime, I highly recommend adding The Help to this year's summer reading list, too. Go ahead, I'll wait!
