Shoot all the blue jays you want, if you can hit ‘em. But remember, it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird.”
A much beloved classic throughout generations, To Kill a Mockingbird enraptured me just as it has to readers of all ages. I don’t think I can say much more that hasn’t already been said but I was pleasantly surprised at the extent of which I enjoyed this novel and look forward to reading the sequel

Obviously a classic so it’s good. Southern setting felt homey and I think it does a good job of talking about racism and sexism for it’s time. Not perfect since it’s set in 1930s Alabama but I do think it’s effective. Other books like Secret Life of the Bees and The Help try and fail to do what To Kill a Mockingbird had already done.

To Kill a Mockingbird surprised me with how good it was. To be honest, going in I thought I would hate it. I found the beginning plot to be rather disjointed. Most of the character were quite good, but some of them lacked depth. Honestly, this is a rather average book.
