The Help
Kathryn Stockett
As the book has recently been made into a major film, I will preface this review with a comparison between the two. While most films do not live up to the book they are based on, 'The Help' does, mostly I feel because the best part of the book is the narration. In essence, it is not the story which makes the book so enjoyable but how the story is told, how the character sees the story, and this part was most definitely bought into the film. The film stays true to the book, only missing out on parts which bring laughs or a slightly deeper understanding of the character.
