Best part of story, including ending:
I loved this story because it's a story about three smart woman who link up for a common goal, ready to risk all that they have. It's truly inspiring.
Best scene in story:
My favorite scene was when they mother of Miss Celia ate Minny's feces, thinking it was just choclate pie. That was one of the most humorous parts of the novel, lightens the mood.
Opinion about the main character:
What I dislike most about the main character was the fact that she held her tounge for so long and was the complete opposite of her friend. It just wasn't fair how long she had to endure the things she endured.
