I just finished the book and it has been intense. I did not expect how the ending would end and it got me confused at some parts then it explained further reading the story. This book has a lot of adventure to it which keeps me reading :]
In chapter 20 the white people in the town of Maycomb do not accept Mr. Dolphus Raymond, an elderly and wealthy man, because he married a black woman. Mr. Dolphus pretends to be a drunkard so his voice would tone down. He always carried a bag with something in it . The drink he carries is not alcohol but coke. He offers Dill a drink from his bag. Dill drinks from the bag while Scout warns him not to drink much. Dill tells him it is only coke.
In chapter 25 when jem and dill witness helen the bad news who is now a widow, she collapses before Atticus has the chance to tell Helen the bad news. He tries to be gentle in breaking the news but Helen can't hold in her emotions. Tom's death becomes the town's topic for gossiping.
The part i liked was when the kids get sort of beat up because one of their neighbors tries to hurt them but ends up standing himself. At the end there was a lot of suspense. When Scout and Jem stands on Boo's front porch for a moment looking far down. they realizes that Boo is able to see the large neighborhood from where she is standing. She knows that Boo was able to watch them growing up for all those years. Scout gives Boo a hug and then walk back to her home.
Hey Rosano the part you were talking about when Jem and Scout get beat up by their neighbor they didnt get beat up by the neighbor they got beat up by Bob Ewell. Remember when Atticus went to the post office and Bob Ewell spat at him, cursed him, and threatened to kill him.(291) Bob Ewell even broke into the judge Taylor's house. Bob Ewell wanted hurt the Finches. Arthur Radley or Boo was the neighbor who saved and helped Jem and Scout when Bob Ewell was beating Jem and Scout. And Bob Ewell got stabbed in the chest accidentally and died because it was really dark. If it wasnt for Boo coming and Bob Ewell getting stabbed in the chest Jem and and Scout would have been seriously hurt even though Jem was hurt pretty bad already.
