I was surprised at how much I liked this book, probably because I know of (and have seen snippets of) the John Wayne movie, and he's not my favorite. But he is not the protagonist of the book; that is 14-year-old Mattie Ross, out to avenge her father, narrating the story as an elderly spinster. I unexpectedly fell in love with her character, despite all her blind spots and black-and-white thinking.
