Loved that book! And the movie is good too.
Good to know about the movie! After reading the book I became curious about the adaptation but had already missed it on cinemas. I'll have to wait for the DVD to come out whinging
So far I liked what I saw with the casting (even though Emma Stone and Bryce Dallas Howard weren't physically close to what I had pictured of Skeeter and Hilly, they're great actresses - and that surpasses my expectations on looks). Hope there weren't losses to the story. That's always my biggest disappointment when books are adapted to the big screen. But from what I've read about the movie it can stand on its own, which is great.
Thanks for the recommendation!
