To Kill a Mockingbird

Summary: AN UNDYING AMERICAN CLASSIC!
Review: If you have not yet read this classic book by Harper Lee, you're missing out on an amazing literary experience. "To Kill A Mockingbird" is an eye-opening story about the effects of racism on our country in the post-Depression era. It is also a tender tale of a Southern childhood. Beautifully written, this book captivates you from page one. I strongly recommend it- anyone, of any age, will be touched by this book.

Summary: excellent novel!! One to remeber forever
Review: I cannot express how great this book is. It keeps you interested, while staying simple. It wil make you laugh and make you cry. It begins by introducing you to the Finches. The story is narrorated by the young girl Scout(Jean Louise Finch). Part one takes you through their summers, school years, and inumerable attempts to provoke Boo Radley out of his house. Part two takes you into the rape case between Tom Robinson(negro) and the Ewells(white). Much racism and discrimination is shown throughout the story, yet the Finch family potrays good morals nomatter what happens. I would strongly reccomend this book whether you need it for a report, or just a good read, you will not be dissapointed.

Summary: A Real Classic
Review: My opinion has changed about this book my second time around. I was astonished at how enjoyable this book really is. After I started reading it again, I couldn't put it down. The author really accurately depicts how unfair the South treated the Negroes at that time period. I liked how Harper Lee uses Scout's perspective to tell the story. Children often see more things than adults do. The title fits the story very well; the comparison of an innocent mockingbird to an innocent black man. I would recommend this book to anyone! It will be one of the best classics you will ever read. I promise!!

Summary: A One of a kind book for all kids to adults
Review: The book "To Kill A Mockingbird" recieved 4 stars from me. The beginning of the book seems to be rather dry, although it helps to build the plot. As the story continues, the excitement picks up as a variety of different things happen. You are never focused completely on one idea at a time, and when you are finally figuring out the story, you hit another twist that makes you have to rethink. Overall this story was very well written, and very entertaining. I believe it would be good for all highschool students to read, and would also be good for adults. Reading this book can give you a new outlook on the way life was, and how it still is.

Summary: A must read for all teens and adults too
Review: This book is the best book I have read. It is so interesting that you will barely be able to put it down. To those who haven't read it, READ IT. I had to read it for my 9th grade English class last semester and we had the best time reading it in class. I recommend that all 9th grade English and/or Literature classes read this.

Summary: Truely a Good Book
Review: I had to read this book for school and I didn't think that it was going to be very good. But, when I got finished, my mind changed automaticly. Lee described Scout and Jem very well, like how Scout was a tomboy. Also, she described Maycomb County well like the people living in it. Like the Ewell's or the Cunningham's. I would tell anyone to read this book!!

Summary: Harper, I have some questions
Review: I am doing an essay on your book and I would like to know why you used Boo Radley, Tom Robinson, and Dolphus Raymond as examples of Mockingbirds. It would really help me get an A on my report, plus I would really like to know. Thanx a bunch!!!!!

Summary: A deep reading experience!
Review: This is a powerfull novel that will force any reader to take a close look at their own convictions. Don't be mistaken in understanding this book. If you arrive at the conclusion that the deputy is responsible, YOU ARE WRONG, go back and try again. While reading this book, the most important thing is to keep an open mind!
