I bought this looking at so many 5 stars...

I am giving 1 star only because of Skeeter's soothing voice.

Is this is a trick by Audible??
Jeez..

I don't know what the heck is wrong with people these days. Are the stars purely out of sympathy. I cannot listen and concentrate to it. I thoroughly enjoyed awesome audios of "woodcutter" and girl with a dragon tattoo series and after them, this??

I feel like commiting a suicide.

I can not tell you how much I enjoyed this book. I was initially a bit wary of the fact that it was narrated by a few different people thinking it would sound a bit like a audio soapopera - but it works really really well! (different people read different chapters that is all!)

I was engrossed from the very first line and was really sad when it finished! I am now at a loss!

Listen to this book - its great!

Brilliant book. Just like a paperback that you can't put down, you will want to listen to this from start to finish.

This is the best book I've listened to in some time. Love the narration. It enhances great writing from Kathryn.

This is a brilliant, thought-provoking and important book superbly translated to audio format by some very skilled actors, and I was utterly gripped throughout.

I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone else - it's simply really, really good.

This is a great book anyway and well worth a read/listen but the narrator's really make it! The voices are incredible and make you feel like you're there in Jackson in the 50's.

Could not turn this off. Best audiobook I have ever listened to and now struggling to find any that are as captivating.

Brilliant book, its themes are powerful and universal, and it's characters dear and vivid. I love books like this with multiple narrators, you get a great sense of the whole through each other's eyes. Can't say if the book itself was great or if it was attributable to the actors involved, but the overall production was superlative, standing out in a sea of great Audible adaptations. Thoroughly enjoyable and rewarding, I can't recommend this enough as an experience to be had.

I am sorry to say that I have finished The Help, I am going to miss listening to it on my daily walks. Just this morning I watched the reviews for the film which came out today in Australia, I am sure the movie will be excellent but this audio book was so wonderfully performed that I doubt that the movie will be able to hold a candle to it. Fantastic story and the cast of readers were perfect, they really drew you into their world, a world unlike anything I could imagine, I sometimes find myself thinking in a southern American accent, they were all so charming. I loved the way the reader changed with the focus of each chapter, this made it so much more compelling. You must download this.

This is the first audiobook I downloaded from Audible. Sadly, I'm not sure I will find another book that will top this. I relished every moment I got to listen to this. A beautiful story, told through well crafted and very entertaining characters. The actresses used on the recording are also superb, truly rendering the story perfectly and really giving you a great sense of the deep south in the 1960s. As with many other readers, I was very sad when this was over and am struggling to find another audiobook as good since. You must download this.
