I purchased this book for my son who is taking an English class. This book is a classic and unfortunately I threw my copy out. I located this book and purchased it. It arrived within 5 days and was in good shape. Keep up the good work.
Rating: - A Must Read Book
"To Kill A Mockingbird" is a book filled with mysteries, an engaging plot, and fascinating characters. I just read this book for a summer reading project and it captured my interest.

Instead, it takes the route of pure boredom, shallow characters, and an asinine plot that is so lame and so boring, a Lucky Charms commercial has a more compelling plot. I was barely able to keep myself awake during the time I read this book, and when I was able to stay awake, I was mostly ... Read More
Rating: - Tightly written with a message for everyone
Harper Lee was encouraged to write some of her childhood memories. What in the beginning seems like the story of three childhood friends in depression era Macomb, Alabama, turns out to be packed with insights to the makeup of human kind.
This story is intriguing on many levels from the history of the area to the stereotyping of people. Most of all every turn was a surprise as told in the first person from the view of Scout Finch. And instead of telling the story in a six year old vocabulary she ... Read More
