“Audio is THE way to be inside this story, brilliantly cast with four voices…Jenna Lamia embodies Miss Skeeter…Bahni Turpin and Octavia Spencer contrast the voices of hot-headed Minny and thoughtful, inspiring Aibileen. Their musical speech and emotional connection to the characters are riveting. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”

Aibileen is a black maid in 1962 Jackson, Mississippi, who's always taken orders quietly, but lately she's unable to hold her bitterness back. Her friend Minny has never held her tongue but now must somehow keep secrets about her employer that leave her speechless. White socialite Skeeter just graduated college. She's full of ambition, but without a husband, she's considered a failure. Together these seemingly different women join together to write a tell-all book about work as a black maid in the South, that could forever alter their destinies and the life of a small town.

    Such a great story, and very well read

    I LOVED this book, and what a great cast of narrators! First I saw the movie, then I read the book, then I ventured over to the audiobook. They are all brilliant. The four different readers here, for the different perspectives from which the story is told, are all amazing. I’m so glad they chose to do this audiobook the way they did. This is such a well-told, emotional story. I was thoroughly engaged the entire time. I felt like I’d made new friends by the end of the book. Do not miss this one.
