To Kill a Mockingbird, chapters 1&2.

I just started To Kill A Mockingbird, by Harper Lee. It's an easy read so far...nothing significant has happened yet, don't think, but Lee has introduced and overviewed the characters clearly, so that I can tell that they will come into play soon. I think his unique and interesting description of the characters, from Scout Finch's point of view is what keeps the reader's attention.

  1. Yes. FYI, Harper Lee is a "she." Scout's perspective as a retelling of the text is one of the reasons this is such an often-taught text.

  2. I noticed that when I read the back, which surprised me, and I'm embarrassed I didn't know better!
