I have been done with To Kill A Mockingbird, but now for the first time I'm able to talk about it. I thought the ending was great. How Jem and Scout get attacked by Bob Ewell. And how Boo Radley comes to their rescue. It was a great ending and really was the best part of the book. I think the saying from Ms. James' post, Most people are likable once you get to know them is very true and relates to this book in a big way.
For the whole book Jem and Scout stayed away from Boo Radley's house and always thought of him as a bad dude who never came out of his house. But when Boo Radley saves them from Bob Ewell Jem and Scout see the first good in him they have ever seen. Then as Scout talks to Boo back at their house she learns what a nice man he actually his. This just goes to show that people really are likeable once you get to know them. That is why I think that statement is very true when applied to the book, To Kill A Mockingbird.
The book I am reading right now is called T.O. It is about the Terrell Owens, an NFL football player who has been through lots of controversy. If you like sports or football its an awesome book to read because you get to see his story and not what the media told you. I don't know if there are really any settings, themes, or characters like the ones in To Kill A Mockingbird, but T.O. does talk about his faith in God and his confidence and hard-work ethic. But it is a really good book!
I hope everyone has a great springbreak!!! I know I will!!
