Hi again to my blog followers,
I’m still reading “The Help” and to be honest, I’m at a
boring part in my book. I haven’t really read much of the book since my last
reflection because my weekend was busy. I was my 18th birthday and I
didn’t really get a chance to read my book. The questions I put in my first
reflection have not been answered. The author just left me with even more
questions. Mostly questions about what words are. I like that I’m learning
about how life in the early 1960’s is way different then life now in 2012. I
wouldn’t like to live in the town that appears in the book. I still don’t
understand how a mother could allow a maid to raise her children. The mothers
in this book seem more interested in theirselves and not focused on their
children. My mom was only little in the 1960’s but she tells me that life was
way different then now a days. She told me that children back then did what
they were told or they got in big trouble. My mom can remember having a shared phone line with her neighbors
when she was a child. A shared phone line is mensend in the book. This book is
getting my mom and me talking more in depth because I ask her stuff if I want
to know more about a certain thing that happened in the 60’s. This book is
making me more aware of what happened in history.
I hope this book gets more interesting in the next couple of
chapters.
Well, I have to go now but keep coming back and checking in
on my reflections about this book
♥ Michelle
