To Kill a Mockingbird

Writing/Learning Process

For our class novel study we read To Kill A Mockingbird – Written by: Harper Lee. I enjoyed reading this classic, the outstanding world building and story writing made this book a joy to read. I found it difficult to read the book without it feeling like a chore, until I started investing more time into it, making the book easier for me to follow, making it more enjoyable. The characters were easy for me to connect to and understand, as they are incredibly well written. I enjoyed the chapters of the book which dove into the court case of Tom Robinson which showed Atticus’s character and his fight that he knew he would lose. Atticus has to be the most enjoyable character in this book, as his character can be learned from and used in the real word, his dedication to being himself in his home and in the real world will be a lesson I remember throughout my life.
