The very last page charms you to the place and the people. Old trick of an ending but executed perfectly.

There is a sincerity captured in this book, taught and exemplified by each character, that I've yet to find anywhere else. It gets better every time I read it.

Everybody's favorite book and with good reason. It speaks to all ages in its own way and when re-read re-amazes.

This is definitely one of the greatest books of all times!!! Love it!

This is one of my favourite books of all time. I read it for the first time when I was about 12. And I've read it at least once every year since then. I'm now 30.

What do I love about it? Scout Finch. Her honesty is brutal. She'll teach you something about yourself and about the world around you.

One of the best books ever written.

One of the best books I have ever read. Moved me very deeply. And one of the best Southern fictions ever.

I actually *chose* (yes, /chose/) to read this book in 5th grade. An excellent read, although some say it's like fruitcake- you either love it or hate it. I'd disagree with that as well, fruitcake is just o.k. in my eyes, but the book is fantastic.

To kill a mockingbird was one of the better books i was forced to read.

Best book I was forced to read in high school. Scout is a timeless character.

What can you say about To Kill a Mockingbird? It's the gold standard for all novelists ... a writer's dream to create an Atticus Finch ... a story that withstands the test of time. You are incomplete until you have seen 1930's Maycomb, Alabama through Scout's eyes!

SunRae recommended this 2 years ago

One of my all-time favorites, that can be read again and again and again. Plus, the author is an Alabama girl like me!

One of the best books I was forced to read. I would have missed out on a classic if I hadn't read it.

Definitely one of the better books my Grade Ten english teacher inflicted on us. It was definitely way before its time.

I think everyone should read this book or at least see the film.
Cons: I heard "they" were trying to remove it from the high school curriculum

skc recommended this 3 years, 10 months ago

One of the best books I've ever read. You'll lose yourself in it!

joyewonder recommended this 3 years, 10 months ago

Excellent book; Lee keeps you hooked from beginning to end and the story is both compelling and distressing; a must-read

rhapsody1386 recommended this 3 years, 10 months ago

This is a very good book. You will definitely be into every part of this book. Several discussions can stem from reading it.

A true classic. Heartwarming and real.

chris recommended this 4 years, 3 months ago

Classical legal morality tale.
Cons: Inspired many young people to go into law who later ended up becoming corporate lawyers.

kelly recommended this 4 years, 5 months ago

A classic. Even though you were likely forced to read it in high school English, it's worth a fresh read again.
