Reading Reflection#4

Book:The Help
Author:Kathryn Stockett
Pages:105-120
AIBILEEN
I've come to really like Aibileen. She is loyal and caring and strong in her values. I truly hope something really good happens for her by the end of this novel. She is well deserving. It breaks my heart to see how Miss Leefolt treats her baby girl and I think she's very lucky to have Aibileen. One thing i cant wrap my head around, I question it every time I pick up this book is why the blacks and the whites used to be so seperated.Why is there a need for a seperate bathroom for the blacks?The second Aibileen brought Mae to her bathroom in the garage i knew Mae was going to end up going there when her mother got home.  Its crazy what it used to be like in this world and sometimes still can be. Whenever i think about it, I question it. I think that Little Mae Mobley will grow up to love Aibileen and her mother will not be happy. Im also going to predict that Aibileen is going to help Miss Skeeter with her book. She is very unsure about it at the moment because she knows what the consequences could be but i think she will end up helping her. A question I have is WHY did Miss Skeeters mother fire Constantine. Im just waiting to find out and hoping Aibileen will tell Miss Skeeter is the very near future! Thats about all the questions comments and predictions I have for today!

  2. I really do like the style of the book. The only negative for me is going back and forth between the ladies in the book in their point of view, I keep getting confused on which ones which!Other than that, I've really enjoyed reading it and I'm excited to read the rest of it.
