“To Kill a Mockingbird” By Harper Lee Review

Compassionate, dramatic, and deeply moving, “To Kill A Mockingbird” takes readers to the roots of human behavior – to innocence and experience, kindness and cruelty, love and hatred, humor and pathos. Now with over 18 million copies in print and translated into forty languages, this regional story by a young Alabama woman claims universal appeal. Harper Lee always considered her book to be a simple love story. Today it is regarded as a masterpiece of American literature.

Ive heard a lot about this book so I have finally decide to read it. And I gotta say that I really disappointed be very much.

The plot here makes some good points about human behaviour. But other than that the plot for me personally was super boring and I really didn’t care for the plot. And I just ended up DNF-ing this book after having read over 60% of it.  The plot here have taken me back to high school and reminded me why I hated school so much because it felt like it a super boring and extremely long psychology lesson. 

The characters here feels like they were taken out of like 1920s and I just couldn’t find anything I could relate them with. They all felt like they were two characters split into many characters. 

There is a lot of use of the “N word”. And I just think it was way overused of that “N word”. To be honest it really made me annoyed with this book with that overusing of this single word. 

The writing here is okay for the most part. But the edition I got is filled with old English and I found it super annoying in this book. 

I Give This Book 2 / 5
