Rating: Summary: A Classic! Review: This is a classic for all time. The plot is great, the carachters are well devolped. Rates right up there with Jane Eyre, Wuthring Heights, in my mind.
Rating: Summary: To Kill a Mockingbird Review: A story that captured my imagination forever. An exciting recap of life during the 1930's that will live on your mind forever. A must for any book lover. Highly recommended.
Rating: Summary: Interesting book Review: This subject is a heavily-studied genre in my school's English department, but like many, it is written/produced/constructed well in tackling racial issues at the era in which it was written.
Rating: Summary: highschool student from hamden,CT. Review: I'll admit, I underrated this book. I judged it by it's cover. It looked like a yawner, but once you get to the Bo Radley part, the unwinds in interestingness. The story doesn't appear to lag on, I don't really think Dill needed to be in the story, but it was very good. The Tom Robinson case was the climax. Maturity showed from Scout and Jem, they finally realized what Atticus was trying to get across the whole time to them. The plot seemed a bit hard to comprehend, but it unraveled into maturity for the theme i'd say. Beleive me, Boo Radley wa something else, he was such a good character, it kept you intrigued to wonder about him. At the end he proved everyone wrong except Mrs. Dubose who always said he was a nice kid, he saved Jem's life, and Jem owed him one.
Rating: Summary: Remarkable, brilliant, a masterpiece- you must read Review: This book is revolutionary. It takes the reader through a captivating story of racial perception to the understanding and acceptance of racial tolerance in the small town of Maycomb. Not only does this book focus on various aspects of racism (seen through the eyes of Scout), it's a reflection of the times and the incomperable suppression of man's fight for equality and civil rights. The story is not just about Maycomb--it reflects both the racial crisis of yesterday and the prejudice that still exists. Written with emotion and a rare sense of true compassion, this book will astonish you on every page you read. This Pulitzar Prize winning author instills both humor and suspense in this unforgettable novel. Remarkable characters include Atticus, the defense attorney that defends Tom Robinson in a remarkable trial, Scout, and big brother Jem all will add to the brilliance of this great American novel.
Rating: Summary: The Best book I've ever read, period. Review: When we read this in school last year, I wasn't too happy with it. You know how some English teachers make you over analyze EVERYTHING? Well, my English teacher did so and the book meant absolutely nothing to me. I hated it for a long time! However, one day I was at the bookstore and I saw it "pop out" I guess you could say, so I picked it up and bought it. Don't ask me why... Something was telling me to buy it and buy it right then. I got it home and read all night, not stopping for anything, and I ended up sobbing at the end of the book. Now whenever I read it I always stop reading with about 10 pages left because I can't make it.. I always cry. It's a wonderful book.
Rating: Summary: Enticingly surprising! Review: I was reading this book in the car and when Boo Radley was revealed, I gasped so loud the driver was quite disturbed.
Rating: Summary: 10 a breath taking tear jurking well written novel. Review: I just read To Kill A Mockingbird I am 14 and loved the book. Charecters Atticus,Jem,Scout,Dill,Bob Ewell,Tom Robinson,Mayella Ewell,Calpurnia,Etc. I would recomend this book to both kids and adults. It is easy to get into and hard to put down. If you are looking for a classic look no farther than To Kill A Mocking Bird. A must read for classcic book readers. Adam Moulton
Rating: Summary: one of my top ten! Review: I will be brief;the other reviews here are praise enough. This is the book I took to the hospital when I went to deliver my first child. Needless to say, I didn't get much reading done, but the intent was there!This book, like "A Tree Grows in Brooklyn" is one of my "comfort" books!
Rating: Summary: Great all-around book! Review: This book is absolutely awesome! While it was a school assignment, I fell in love with the book. I kept my copy of it and plan to read it again and again. Analysis of the plot wasn't fun in English class, but it's still pure reading enjoyment.
