I didn't want it to end!

I just finished The Help by Kathryn Stockett, and I'm sad it's over. The book is set in the early 1960s in Jackson, Mississippi at the turning point of Civil Rights in America. Martin Luther King Jr. was on the rise and President JFK had just been killed. The book takes you through the lives of three extraordinary women, Minny, an African American maid who has been cleaning houses since she was 14. She has a mouth on her and is quick to get fired. Her best friend Aibileen, who is also a maid, has raised over 17 white children while her only child died in a car accident. And then there's Eugenia Skeeter Phelan who just returned home from college and is ready to start her future as a writer. The three woman are devoted to the Southern traditions but are anxious and terrified of what could happen if they keep quiet.

I loved this book so much I was sad when it was over. I want to know more about what happens to these women, to the town of Jackson, Mississippi. Keeping my fingers crossed Kathryn comes out with a sequel.
