Books : To Kill a Mockingbird

Search Books - select a category

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Thoughtful and reflective novel intertwined with engrossing story lines
I recommend To Kill a Mockingbird on the basis that when searching for a good fictional piece to read, I think its necessary to find a complex story combined with articulate writing for it to remain engrossing. Lee achieves this by offering a narrative filled with multiple story lines as well as frequently dealing with adult concepts depicted through the mind of a eight year old.

To Kill a Mockingbird offers some consideration to the notion that the nature of one's choices does not necessarily encompass one's true worth. To draw such a conclusion from the unbiased naiveté of a child is a mere example of the eloquent and perceptive nature of this book.

I would recommend reading this book to anyone with an open mind and a sincere interest in human reflection.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Relevant even today
My daughters are reading this book for a school assignment and they are finding it as relevant to them today as I found it when I read it at their age. A classic...



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - WOW
To Kill a Mocking Bird

Being recognized as one of the greatest pieces of American literature in the twentieth century, stating To Kill a Mocking Bird is fantastic, should go without saying. I recommend whoever is considering reading this doesn't try to figure everything they can about the book before they do so. It's better to into on a clean slate. Some references and lifestyles may be shocking but one must remember where, and when it takes place. Reading novels from today's biggest names in literature, its clear many are influenced by Harper Lee. Lacking clear violence, true love, and other huge themes seen in books and movie now a days, some may say its boring but reading thoroughly, one can see the painful conflict and romance in its pages. In summary, this piece may in some ways be offensive, but it reflects history, unjust prosecution, and the truth of the world.




Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great re-read!
I loved re-reading this book. It has been and always will be one of my favorites. All the characters are so rich and memorable.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - profoundly gorgeous
This truly is the most beautiful, profound,brilliant, redolent with meaning book i have ever read. Harper Lee's candid statement that, i quote, said" i intended this to be a simple love story" amuses me . it is so much more, exemplifying racial inequities, preconcieved notions and their detrimental effects on society, A keen love with the disabled, and so much more. This novel is what stimulated me to read every possible erudite literary work in existence. lee's cadence resonates throughout every page of the book. a must read.
