I gave this book 4 1/2 stars because of some glitch in the FVRL system does not allow a full five star rating. In short, I was deeply moved and inspired by this book. Since I have spent time in the deep South, I could clearly picture the characters and the settings around them. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a thought-provoking, interesting, simple, straight-forward book.

This might be one of the best books ever. Well, clearly, because it's a classic...It's the kind of book that makes it really easy to write an essay, because it's so thought provoking. It's very smart, and beautifully told. At the same time, you can understand it, because it's told by a child. It's full of symbolism, and some people (like me) love to notice symbolism and think about it, but you can read this novel just for the story if you would like. The vocabulary in it is much more simple than that of many other classics, such as the Hunchback of Notre Dame, so it is a fairly easy read, but will keep you thinking for a very long time. Fantastic novel! This is a great book.The characters are so real and I learned a lot from them especially Atticus Finch the narrator's dad who is so polite and make sense out of everything even when he's critisized.This book deals with the idea of prejudice too that is presented through a trial of Tom Robinson a black person back in the 19's convicted of a crime he never did..The book also deals with maturation and growth of Scout and Jem who make sense of social problems through their surrondings in Maycomb,Alabama.

I thought the book was pretty good. I thought since it was old, that it would be a boring book, but it wasnt. ;)

I got this book just randomly browsing my libraries shelves. I read the back of the book and it looked like a good read. Sure enough it was. The only problem was that it, in my opinion had to many characters. As soon as I finish a page I am introduced by another character. Other than that it was a great book.

I just read the first few pages and i cant put it down!

When I decided I would read "To Kill a Mockingbird", I considered myself performing a chore/duty for socially redemptive significance's sake; then I opened it, and couldn't put it down. It is a truly seminal classic! If I had a bone to pick (and I realize the narrative was semi-autobiographical account of Harper Lee's childhood experiences), it would be the seemingly unnoticed existence of two such blithely intellectual children in the rural, pre-war deep south. But this is likely due to some measure of latent bias on my part. I eagerly recommend reading "To Kill a Mockingbird" to one and all!

I really love this novel! I can see why it is a classic - beautifully written, addresses different themes.

This Book Is Awsome :-) ! Also .. In This Book It Mostly Explained How Atticus Is A Man For All Colored ! Don't Judge A Man By Thy Color :-) ! People Care ! ~

After reading this, I can really see why it's a classic! Harper Lee somehow deals with the themes of racism and social hierarchy while telling the story from the point of view the young, innocent Scout Finch. Great ending, too.

An amazing, classic novel that no one should miss reading. Really shows the ignorant predjudice people hold against one another.
