challenging emotional reflective sad tense fast-paced

That is a beautiful, if frustrating, story. Kind of a bummer, tbh, but excellent. The graphic novel is hugely impressive, the illustrations are so clear and detailed. Would highly recommend this format to read this for the first time.

1.5

It had an interesting premise - the time period being shown through the eyes of a child. However, for a book about racial issues in that time period there is a serious lack of black characters relevant to the plot and the prejudice against them isn't shown very well in any of the plot relevant characters.

I love this book more every time I read it. Harper Lee is an understated genius of a human being.

You do miss some of the goodness of narration in the graphic novel, but it's still amazing and simple and great. I wish every person where more like a Finch.
