Summary: On a class of its own... simply a masterpiece.
Review: What can I say? The most powerful, influential, beautifully-written piece of literature of ALL time... that's saying a lot. To Kill a Mockingbird teaches us about the depths of human nature--prejudice, courage, fear, joys, hopes... Lee's use of projecting these ideas through the medium of childhood innocence and questioning works so well.. it's artfully and masterfully done in such a poignant, yet effective way. This novel will definitely move you and leave you speechless. Harper Lee is a genious of a writer. EVERYONE, and I mean EVERY SINGLE HUMAN BEING, should have a chance to read this book sometime in their lives. It crosses all cultures, race, and creed. It's not just a read--it's an EXPERIENCE.

Summary: So boring...
Review: This book was so boring. I was forced to read it for Freshman English, but I didn't. I just couldn't get into it. It's been called a classic, but it just didn't have enough action. Or anything to relate to! F- for this book.

Summary: prejudice
Review: Harper Lee is a great writer. This book is about how people can be prejudice against other people and how that affects some other people. I htink that this book would be boring to most people, but if you are really in to god books with a message hidden behind it, you should read this book.

Summary: A compelling story
Review: I first read To Kill a Mockingbird for a school assignment. When I was finished I sighed in depression because I'd just finished one of the best literary pieces I'd ever read. It takes place in a sleepy southern town during the 1930's. It is told throught the eyes of a young Scout Finch living with her older brother Jem Finch, father Atticus who is a respected lawyer, and Black House Keeper and friend Calpurnia. Also popping up every summer is the bright eyed Charlse Baker Harris also known as Dill who gets the idea to try to make the Mysterious neighbor Boo Radley come out. When a local family the Ewells accuses Tom Robinson a black man of the beating and rape of a young woman Atticus is appointed to be Tom's defense.
The book opens up the simpler times of America, but also the hardships it had to go through. It kept me interested every on every word. It makes you smile and find yourself nodding with the simplicity of the childhood issues and complexity the two go through. This book is an amazing achievement in the literary world, and shows of the morality and harshness the world can behold. It is a compelling novel and a view to the way people work.

Summary: its an ok book
Review: i think that this book is ok. its kind of confusing at some points i think you have to be a really good reader and smart to understand it.i think that the book has a good point and story, but some parts you just wont get. i would reccomend this book to people who like reading books about people's rights and older books about life. i think that the book could have been more exciting or they could have made it easer for people to read. they could have got rid of all the parts (suff) not important or needed. i would say that if you were to take a test on the book i think it wise to watch the movie to help you out. but all in all i think that this book was good but could have been better. but i do have a question why was this book banned??? when you read this book you will wounder why it was benned to, trust me. and if you know why it was banned then pelase post it so i can see why. thanks. read the book if you are up to the challange just joking read it if you want to read a good but challanging book. this is the one.

Summary: Absolutely the Best
Review: I originally had to read this book for class, but it turned out to become one of the most fantastic books I've ever read. Harper Lee's style of writing is perfect, blending in with her real characters. She bases Scout Finch on herself and Dill on her childhood friend Truman Capote. I loved this book. It's truly a magnificent novel, teaching people some of life's most endearing lessons through the story of a simple 9-year old girl in a sleepy Alabama town.

Summary: Everything You Could Ever Want In A Book
Review: In Macomb County lived a girl named Scout. To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee goes over the many adventures and experinces that Scout has in her childhood. Every sentence, every word draws you into the story as if you were there yourself. You could imagine living down the street from a crazy lady and have mysterious neighbors who have a haunting history. Attivus is assigned drags the whole family into a roller coaster with drops that come unexcpected. At times this nobel was a thriller, prickling up and down your spine with danger lerking around every corner. Other times this book had a sweet romance that is adorably cute because of the age of the destined lovers. There is also taumma. This is a historical book that takes place during the time of descrimination against African American people. If you are searching for a book with these elements plus suspense that has you on the edge of your chair, thirstin for more until the last page is devoured and you are satisfied with the well written ending, this novel is definatly a must on your bookshelf.
To Kill A Mockingbird thows fast bals and curves you thought could never be possible. Absolutly! Positivly! I recommend this book to anyone who loves to read.

Summary: A truly amazing book of life
Review: In the book "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee, there is a great story of growing up. Scout Finch and her older brother Jem go on adventures with their friend Dill throughout the book. Their main goal is to get Aurthur(Boo)Radley to come out of his house. Many childhood adventures and fun with tese kids. There is also a court scene that I know left me on the edge of my seat guessing after I put the book down. It was a game of guess, wait, read, and find out. The ending was also amazing when something aweful happens to Jem and Scout on hteir way back from a school play, but I can't tell you, so just read the book...it's amazing!

Summary: To Kill a Mocking Bird
Review: To Kill A Mocking Bird was one of the best books i have read in a long time. It tells the story of scout a young girl growing up with her dad and brother. Her dad is a lawyer currently involved in a huge trial the trial has a lot to do with rasism. I loved it. I would recomend it to any body. I especialy like the end when Scout goes and stands on Boo Radley's porch and sees the world through his eyes. Five stars this was an easy pic.

Summary: Lots of Life lessons Woven in
Review: Scout's dad is an attorney and has a reputation for winning his cases even the hard ones. She knows that he had taken on the particularly hard case of Tom a black man accused of raping a white women. Scout is confused, she has heard people muttering behind her fathers back and they don't sound supportive of him like they always have before, she wonders why. This is an excellent book about racism with a basic underlying message of "Don't judge a book by its cover". This book should not be read to elementary school kids I think because it does deal with some prickly issues. If you think your kids are mature enough to handle it then knock yourself out, like I said it does preach a valuable life lesson.
