I had to read this for English class, and as anyone who has had to read a book for school knows, it kind of wrecks the book, no matter how good it may be. It’s just really hard to enjoy a book and get emotionally invested in it when it is accompanied by a countless number of boring papers.
That being said, this book was a lot better than I thought it would be. It addressed issues in a thought-provoking way, tough life lessons, and had a lot of great quotes. However, a lot of the chapters did not contribute to the overall plot, or were just kind of boring. The way the plot flowed was also slightly underwhelming and just odd. Nothing happened for a while, and then a lot, and then nothing, and then a lot, and then it was over. I was not a fan of that.
Also, for some reason I kept picturing Jem as Georgie Cooper from Young Sheldon??? Someone please tell me I’m not the only one who’s thought this.

“You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it.”-Harper Lee
Truly great story! A great example how prejudice breeds in society, whether political, religious, racial...people would worry about what's happening in other parts of world, but never look what they doing in in their own home.
A memorable book.

almost fell asleep during the half of the book. once the buzz about the trial began, it became more interesting. second half made the first half bearable and this book a good book.
