second part

Well I'm finally done with the book and I could honestly say that the book was okay. The ending was definitely not what I expected. I definitely got lost in some parts of the book though, but I eventually figured out the parts I didn't get because thankfully it explained itself as I kept reading the story. The story did end up what I thought it was gonna be about which was racism, but the idea was displayed throughout the story in a different way I guess. Like how the trial where Mayella's father was clearly the culprit, but because of his skin color, he was guilty to the jury's eyes. I was so mad when I was reading that part because I couldn't believe stuff like this happen so many times back then. Also when Scout and Jem's aunty came in to leave with them. I mean how could you put your family's status first before your family's happiness? I get that she's just trying to teach them about the kid's background but it's no use to teaching kids who already has some sense of what their family's like. Plus, having a woman-figure for Scout so she could have a model to look upto is kinda useless too because you can't teach an old dog new tricks;I mean like she's already used to wearing overalls and if she's comfortable in them, then let her do what she wants especially if she already has a mind of her own. But otherwise it was an okay story. My favorite part was when Jem and Scout were getting harrassed by Mayella's father because that scene was so intense;I had no idea who it was! It was pretty cool to read that it was Boo Radley who helped them at the end. Like when Harper Lee was describing him, I was thinking, "Who is this?? And I wonder why he's so pale." But I was kinda wondering why would he helped them out and then I realized that Boo Radley kinda thought of Jem and Scout as if they were his children. He was always there when the kids were in trouble;he was their unknown savior. I thought it was kinda weird how Atticus kept saying his son was the killer of Mayella's father because he clearly wasn't paying attention to the clues. But the end was a little more weird because I thought there was gonna be something more like I thought the story was gonna keep going. But all stories eventually come to an ending and that ending was just not expected. This story was about Jem, Scout, and Atticus's lives growing up and I've never read something that was so descriptive. I definitely would read something from Harper Lee again ahah.
