While, of course, we all wanted the court case to go the other way, I think the doomed from the start case where they couldn't overcome it in the end aspect was very good. It speaks to Atticus Finch's character that he did his best despite the odds. It also illustrated the social issues at the time very well.
I also liked the ending with Boo (Arthur) Radley quite a bit. I think it really spoke to Scout's new perspective about how to think about and treat people developed in the book.

The novel has a fairly heavy premise: a black man on trial for the rape of a white woman in Alabama during the Jim Crow era. All trigger warnings that can think of are present, but I think that for the most part Harper Lee handles them very well.ellen_suth's review against another edition
