Hey,
It’s time for my monthly book reviews and today I am
reviewing the book I read in January! It’s been a little bit different this
month because I was actually reading this book in and out of school, which is
why it’s taken a little longer to finish. So today I want to talk to you about
the classic novel by Harper Lee- To Kill A Mockingbird.
If I’m honest, I’d heard of this book before but I actually
had no idea of what it was about. The book is well-loved around the world, has won
so many awards and is studied in English classes every day.
Scout is a young girl who lives in 1930s Alabama with her
brother Jem and her farther Atticus. Her town is called Maycomb, and it is a
town that is not only set in its ways but cursed by traditions. The people are
defined by their family name, judged by their colour and trapped in a repeating
world.
However soon change must come. A black man is put on trial
and his word goes against the word of a white man’s. This forces the people
into confusion. When their world is trapped by segregation, it seems only the
children can see the fault in the adults’ ways. Will they ever learn to accept each
other?
The novel watches Scout grow up and the adventures she has
with her brother and their best friend Dill. Together they challenge the unsolved
mystery of Boo Radley, discover what true courage is and learn that many people
are mislabelled in society.
To
Kill A Mockingbird is a wonderful novel
that is touching and intriguing. I feel like it would be amazing for anyone to
read and it truly is a classic story. Not all works of literacy need to be
overcomplicated or built into world of developed fantacy, some novel such as
this one just need to tell a simple tale- but one that will enchante the mind. The
book teaches life lessons and morals, and many of the stories in it are ones
that can be taken into our everyday lives.
So
that’s it! If you want to get some more details, check out this link! I hope
you enjoyed learning my thoughts on this popular novel and if you’ve read it, I’d
love to know your favourite parts are! I’ll see you all on Sunday for another
post, have a great day,
Social networking-
