I read a lot (too much?) and THE HELP is one of my favorite recent books. It presents a good snapshot of a certain place (Jackson, Mississippi) during a certain period of time (the Civil Rights movement) told from the point of view of the country club set. The story teaches while being entertaining. I'd recommend it.
