Last summer I read this book and I loved it. When it was over I wanted more....not necessarily to know more about the story line but because the author made me feel like I was friends with ALL the characters. It was written in a time that I sometimes think I would like to have lived. When people sat on the porch and talked, ate cornbread&tomatoes, and went to church on Sunday for dinner on the ground. But I don't live completely in fantasy, I know there was no AC, lots of hard work and lots of sticky pantyhose.
Sometimes when a book is made into a movie, parts change but this movie stayed very close to the original. It was done well! And I was not disappointed. It also was special that I got to see it with 10 friends and then had a late dinner after. (6 of us read it as well) But I feel bad for people who haven't read it and only see the movie, because the book was much funnier and much more in depth.
This is a MUST see and MUST read.
