My Reaction

To Kill a Mockingbird is a book written for everyone no matter race, religion, or financial state. This book shows the reader that people are the same with the same fears and ambitions. It tells the reader messages to be told to the young and the old. They express how we live with but don’t question these situations. They are the most important yet simple messages: be true to yourself, the truth is not always the easiest answer but is always the right one, life is filled with “evils” and the right thing won’t always be an option chosen. I believe that the author was able to not only get her message across but to open the eyes of the reader. The novel was able to help in showing me that even if you make mistakes your parents and the ones who care about you won’t let you down and will always be willing to help make you a better person.
