To Kill a Mockingbird

When I first found out To Kill a Mockingbird was the AP summer assignment book, I was sure I would not understand or enjoy this book. This book was one of the books my grandmother really enjoyed and I assumed it only related to her generation. Fortunately, I was wrong.

The first few chapters were somewhat boring. I didn't really understand where the story was going. After a few more chapters, I didn't want to put it down. It became very interesting and I was intrigued to find out what would happen next. During the first quarter of the book I was most curious about the Radley house. They seem to be very suspicious and secretive. Im excited to find out what else will happen with the Radley's.

  1. It was the same for me here. I though like most books you have to read in school that this would be a strugle to get through, but by the end of it I to was struggling to put it down. It was an amazing story that Harper Lee created.

  2. Boo Radley wasn't present in the entire story, but he showed up in the end when it mattered. He is a symbol and represents the theme: Most people are nice, "when you finally see them." Nothing exciting though -_- ...just saving Jem and Scout's lives from the wicked Bob Ewell. Then it ends.
