Just finished reading "The Help"...enjoyed it very much. Hard to believe people thought of and treated others that way. I wish I had ask my Grandma Jarke how she was treated in the 50's and 60's when working for the "Eastsiders" of Bloomington.
I also just love books with one or two word titles that are so accurately descriptive of their contents. "The Help"..."The Hustler"..."11/22/63"..."The Loop"..."Crossers"..."Disclosure"... "Prey"..."The Firm"...The Testament" (and many others by John Grisham)..."Gangster"..."The Oath"..."Monster"..."Timeline"... "Winterkill"...and on and on. Each title a very simple description of the books story line. So I have just ordered another book along those lines..."The Amateur". I'll just have to wait until I read it to see how descriptive it is.
If I ever finish my book...I hope I can come up with a title that conveys the books content in such a simple way. I guess that's one of the qualities that makes most of these authors such good writers.
