The Realness
From the thoughts in Whitney/Savannah’s head when ole dude was growling on top of her to the confession Lela/Robin makes to Bernadine about her abortion, the book and the movie brought the realness. We all knew or know somebody who resembled those characters. And while some of their reactions might have been a little too outrageous for real life (i.e. burning down a car), those characters had women asking themselves which one was most like them.
