seventeen through nineteen

I can't think of a picture that I can put on this post:/ ohh well. i finished reading chapters 17-19 which were all about Tom's trial. I don't think Tom raped Mayella, I think Mayella is just being a brat and accusing Tom of this so maybe her family will be able to sue Tom or something and get some money, since they're in need. I definetely think that Bob Ewell raped her, because he seems like a creep that would do that. Also, the fact that he's left handed and Mayella's right side of her face was bruised and beaten. I think Tom Robinson's story is much more believeable, saying that Mayella was all over him when he was going to fix the door. I don't see how or why Tom Robinson would rape Mayella, so i think he should have for sure been not guilty.
I hope you all had a good weekend:) Mine was pretty good I suppose, I pretty much just slept all day today:] haha. I'm a lazy bum:)
School tomorrow, bleh. I'll see you all then!

i also thought that Tom didn't rape Mayella. When she gave her testimony, i was sure it was her father. Then after getting to Tom's testimony, i was uncertain. He seemed to hesitate at most all of the questions, which made me wonder.
Of course, in most books, its always the black guy that is good and the other white guy that is bad. I was sure this book would be the same.

Apparently not?!?
