To Kill a Mockingbird
Harper Lee
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Danielle Cooke
To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the best books that I have ever read. When published in 1960, it became immediately successful, winning the Pulitzer Prize and and becoming a classic of modern American literature. It can be a very heavy read, and I wouldn’t recommend it for anyone under sixth grade.
To Kill a Mockingbird takes place in the mid 1900s in Maycomb, Alabama, where Jem, Scout, and Dill are growing up. It tells of a few years of their lives, filled with suspense, mystery, humor, and everything between. The characters seem so real; Jem, Scout, and Dill seem like real kids, and Atticus, Jem and Scout's father, is the best father in the world. You will feel what they are feeling as you read, something that almost feels like magic.
Its humorous, sweet style of writing balances out some of the heavy themes that are prominent in this book, including racial injustice, gender roles, courage, and coming-of-age. If you’re looking for an intriguing, thought-provoking read, this book is for you.
