Voted America's Best-Loved Novel in PBS's The Great American Read

Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning masterwork of honor and injustice in the deep South—and the heroism of one man in the face of blind and violent hatred

One of the most cherished stories of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird has been translated into more than forty languages, sold more than forty million copies worldwide, served as the basis for an enormously popular motion picture, and was voted one of the best novels of the twentieth century by librarians across the country. A gripping, heart-wrenching, and wholly remarkable tale of coming-of-age in a South poisoned by virulent prejudice, it views a world of great beauty and savage inequities through the eyes of a young girl, as her father—a crusading local lawyer—risks everything to defend a black man unjustly accused of a terrible crime.

A glimpse of Southern history. It may be fiction but all the circumstances feel real. A glimpse of the south in the 1930s.Scout is a feisty heroine who notices all and her family is sympathetic as well as powerful in Maycomb.Tense and sensitive end.

Boring. Parents make me read this during the summer, the first 5 chapters were boring so then i said i would read to chapter 10 and that if it didnt get better by chapter 10 i would quit. Guess what? I have no idea what happens after chapter 10

a book everyone should read. this book is read all the time across the US for a reason. it’s an amazing book with meaningful themes of what it’s like to be a colored person & fighting for what’s right !!

Crooked Pip

This Book is A Living Hype Train!. As many high school kids probably have, I got this book assigned for my English class. I had heard of this book a couple of times, and many have stated that it was one of their all-time favorite books and an instant classic. And I could not be happier to say that I 100% agree with them! Originally, I thought I was going to easily lose interest in this book, as many kids my age do. Call me an old soul, but this book easily is in my top three favorites of all time and I plowed through it in about two weeks! This was definitely the best school book assigned to me that I have ever read! I loved it so much that I even got my own personal copy so I could read it over and over again! You won’t regret it.

SpacionS

An amazing book worth reading!. Ignore bad reviews and if you haven’t read the book then buy the book and read it for yourself. I finished reading it today and glad I did.

Great book. Those who rated this book poorly do not understand the historical context of this book. A truly revolutionary book for its time, 5 stars.

TNK3rd

Try a read. Good book for starting out

Chase and Hero

Boring. Will it’s just not intending at all, but some people do. But to me it’s a boring book. Also most of the kids in middle school and high school hate this book. The book is just so dry and boring. Just don’t ever start the because you will never finish it.

Jacklbistratton

Yummy. Good book

JimmyJam1985

To Kill a Mockingbird. A very good book to start and never put down until the last word, that’s what I did. I saw the movie years ago but it paled in comparison to the novel itself.

Running man77

Remarkable. This book taught me so much. The characters are full of depth and the storyline is incredible.

Beamer-Rain

To Kill a Mockingbird-14 yr old perspective. I have never had a book hit me as hard emotionally as To Kill a Mockingbird. This book challenges your mind with countless hidden messages and the many political issues facing the reader. I have never been this emotionally impacted by a novel, and I encourage everyone to read it.

Ejh2006

I loved this book. This was a great book and I can see why they call it a classic I loved it so much!

TheRealReviewer7

Kinda boring. Don’t waste ur time

Benjamin7887

The all-time classic. What is there to say, except Thank You, Harper Lee.

The glazed gamer

A bit slow but happy. 8/10

Lakota Lupin🐺

A Masterpiece. This is one of the best books I’ve ever read. My friend let me borrow her copy, and I was hooked. The majority of the book gives off a calm, summery feeling that you got as a child whenever school ended for the year. Many of the characters are likable, the plot line is intriguing, and the writing is beautiful.

YesPqpi

Great book, must read. Really good book, would definitely recommend as this book is basically a classic.

:) :( 8D

Yay. I like it

Annieh8

Beautiful. First of all, let's forget it's a 'classic' that we all 'must' read.

Bamboowillimann

To kill a mockingbird. This is a hardy 7th grade book. Also a good book two read in your spare time.

Pi3c3@ut

Why is it banned?. Most inspiring! At almost 70 I finally picked up this book to read. Incredible the way Ms. Harper was able to hold a mirror up to my face so I would have to look inside myself.

Andrew Boyett

Such a great work. Boo is such an unforgettable character. That was my mom’s nickname for me for the longest time… this book makes me miss her a lot. I love you Mommy!

Willfanboy

Best Novel I’ve ever read. A classic from the late 50s

Jejoyner

Great book. As I was assigned this book as an English project I grew to love the book. Although I feel that boo Radly come to them from no where. Other wise great book

Mckaylag23

Amazing!!!. This book is so good. Even with the amount of language; it gives it more of a story. This book is a must read.

Still Beautiful at 60

Loved Every Word. I’d never read this book and so glad I finally did. The characters came to vivid life and so much to learn from the child’s mind. Beautiful yet sad funny and a book that will be added to my favorites of all time.

To Kill A Mockingbird. Great book the ending really sealed it for me

Dylansdesigns

Eh. It’s fine, but not “classic" material

Utilizar3

Very well written. It’s a classic and I can definitely see why. It’s a very well written book and the characters have depth and were written with care. The ending was definitely my favorite part as Scout got what she wanted.

To kill a mockingbird. The best

Happy book lover

Amazing. I loved this book. It’s the story of racism, brutality and more told from the perspective of a young child. This is a book that makes you think, ponder. I highly recommend this book to everyone. (above the age of 13)

Beautiful classic. Must read!. The first time I ever read TKAM was back in 8th grade of middle school. It’s been almost 3 years since then, and I’ve read this book three times in total. To Kill a Mockingbird written by Harper Lee takes place in a fictional town of Maycomb, Alabama during the 1930s when the Great Depression occurred and racial inequality was a huge issue. Lawyer Atticus Finch teaches his children Jem and Scout the reality to racial discrimination, proper morality, and better understandment of people. I love this book for all sorts of aspects. This book uses great diction, although it’s understandable with context clues. This helps me improve my own writing. Additionally, I admire the characters, especially Atticus. He is a prime example of a qualified human, who acknowledges flaws yet does not show any sign of prejudice towards it. This helps me with my wellbeing and puts critical thinking upon my own morality. This book contains a lot of suspense too with the children’s fabrication of Boo Radley. Overall, I admire this book and it’s no question to why it’s a classic.

Chase and Hero

Boring. Will it’s just not intending at all, but some people do. But to me it’s a boring book. Also most of the kids in middle school and high school hate this book. The book is just so dry and boring. Just don’t ever start the because you will never finish it.

Cd crd drdd

Gross. I hated this book so much. Who cares about some little kids! The trial was horrible. What does a mockingbird have to do with this book. The people aren’t even trying to kill a mockingbird!!

Boring. Not the best book. May teach many good lessons but isn’t appealing in anyway. Extremely boring and uninteresting.

Casssinnnno

A Classic Story. Even after forty years, and rereading this novel, it is still an outstanding read.

Danica hart

The kill of a mockingbird. I justify you read it

Dwardeng

A Classic. I agree with an earlier reviewer that this novel is one the best of the 20th century. Courage and honesty beats hatred and ignorance in a tale that one feels hopeful after reading.

Ghon_fishin

One of the Greatest!. This is one of the most masterfully written stories of all time. If you enjoy reading in any way whatsoever, this classic is a must. This is as much an object lesson as it is entertainment, but what a wonderful story it is.

Trampisfly

Tom. This book for life

Mistico378

Really good. So good

Vic0605

To Kill A Mockingbird. Awesome read!

Optimus prime16

Kill Mockingbird. It’s a great book.

Wolfhead9

To Kill a Mockingbird. I read this book for the first time in high school & loved it then. However, reading it again through the eyes of a 50+ yr old grandmother is something altogether different. I don't remember crying the first time. White folk (such as I) have come a long way, but not nearly far enough. One can only hope... This story shall remain at the top of my list of the best ever written. Thank you Miss Lee.

MMSRSU

Still relevant. What a read!

JeremyWill_You

One of the worst books I have ever read. Like I said, this is one of the worst books I have ever read. If you don’t like Lord of the Flies, you won’t like this one. The story goes nowhere, the Finches live in Maycomb where NOTHING happens, and they spend the whole book trying to get Boo Radley to come out of the house because supposedly he “died” in a fire a long time ago. I don’t even understand how books like these get ANY type of award. And kids are reading this in the schools? Why don’t they just let them read their own book and write a book report on that.

Dylansdesigns

Eh. It’s fine, but not “classic" material

Katamb

Still Engrossing. Read Mockingbird again on a recent airplane flight and it's still one of the best stories of all time. Great for almost any age.

Love love love!. This is one of the very few books that I've read while in Mr. Brengel's class and I can proudly say that I feel completely satisfied. -3rd Period, Chachi ; CO 2017

An American Classic. This book delivers a powerful message. Hard to believe that events such as these actually took place. Highly recommend.

I love this book. This book will always remain a classic

HELLO KITY DES

Boring.. This book is boring, especially the beginning. I usually love the books assigned to us for summer reading, but this one wasn’t interesting.

Favorite. This is my favorite book ever.

Cece the Great 😝

What an amazing, classic book!. TKAM is an amazing classic. Teaches valuable lessons while also being action packed and exciting. 100/10 recommend

GNA111

Boring. Yeah this was ridiculously boring waste of 12 bux

Hglmkmmmm

Slow start. The beginning is slow but it gets somewhat better in the end.

JDFRAN14

Fantastic. This book was very slow to start, but it had so many different climaxes towards the middle/end of the story that you were on the edge of your seat, and from the courthouse to the last page, you felt a sensation of community as well as fear of the unknown.

Monkey 456

Why did I wait so long?. I don't know how in the world I missed reading this book when I was younger. I guess like a lot of kids in Middle School and High School I was more interested in other things like sports and friends and goofing off than reading. Every time I'd need to do a book report I'd borrow Cliff's notes and well...skip the book. A trivia question made me take up interest in Harper Lee and I decided to go back and read this book. It's no wonder it's a classic and that Harper Lee won the Pulitzer Prize. I could barely put it down and spent most of my time reading it. It took me about less than a week and I enjoyed every second of it. I'm sure I can't add anything to all of the 50 plus years worth of praise written about this book so I'll just say that I wish I had read it when I was supposed to some 35 years ago.

Excellent. Ye

Best book writen. I am a 17 year old girl. I've read this book 4 times. The first time was in the seventh grade. This book changed the way I looked at people. I've grown up with my family being strict and it opened my eyes to people. I hated books and this one made me love to read. Every time you read it you learn something new because there are so many things that are important. If you haven't read this book I highly recommend it. It's truly amazing.

Greatest book of all time. This is one those books that make you fell something and give you an amazing rush of adrenaline like your one of the characters in the book from start to finish with a wide range of vocabulary. It's a must read with reading this comes understanding it.

First book I’d ever finished. Great book

Uralilbitch_v3

Best book i've ever read.. I'd keep reading this book if it went on forever. I wish it did.

ReadgirlRead

A Great Read with an even greater introspection. Although published over 50 years ago, Harper Lee masterfully shows the introduction to racism through a child's eye. The various relationships that a child encounters shows you how they absorb information and a cultural view. This book can be related to modern day events while challenging your inner moral compass.

Mc Donald's man

Amazing. Great book very detailed totally suggest reading!

To Kill a Mockingbird. Saw the movie years ago and never read the book until now. The book was heart wrenching, sweet and comical, I felt as though I was with them all.

Judevelez

Excellent. A classic through and through. I've been rereading this one at different points in my life and I always walk away with new perspective.

Mookielamo

To kill a Mockingbird. This has to be the twentieth time I have read this book. It just never gets old. The lessons learned from it are endless and lessons that will never be solved. We all go thru them and all learn from them. Hopefully what we learn will make this world a better and kinder place to live.

Nelle Harper Lee (April 28, 1926 – February 19, 2016) was an American novelist whose 1960 novel To Kill a Mockingbird won the 1961 Pulitzer Prize and became a classic of modern American literature. She assisted her close friend Truman Capote in his research for the book In Cold Blood (1966). Her second novel, Go Set a Watchman, was an earlier draft of Mockingbird that was published in July 2015 as a sequel.The plot and characters of To Kill a Mockingbird are loosely based on Lee's observations of her family and neighbors in Monroeville, Alabama, as well as a childhood event that occurred near her hometown in 1936.
