April @thislittlepennyearns (68246) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 21 Apr 22

So in the last couple days/weeks there has been a lot of talk about books being banned in Florida. This is relevant to me, since I live here. I am also aware of a handful of 'Lotters that also reside in the Sunshine State, so...

Assigned to Read

DragonflytotheMoon @GypsyButterfly (295) • Ukiah, California 23 Apr 21

I was read to as a child. My grandma instilled the love of reading in me. I've always been an avid reader. That's when I choose the books. I never cared to have to read something for an assignment. Especially if we also needed to...

Fey: a little word with a lot of baggage

James Higgins @JamesHxstatic (29410) • Eugene, Oregon 29 Dec 18

Once this little three letter word's general meaning in British dialect was "marked for death or fated to die." In its limited use today, it is not quite so serious. I first heard the word, as I recall, when I was in college and...

Bought My Oldest Daughter "To Kill a Mockingbird"

Steve Helmer @srhelmer (7047) • Beaver Dam, Wisconsin 24 May 16

I first read the book when I was about her age (11) and figured it would be a good summer reading option for her. She read the first chapter of it and seems to like it so, hopefully, she'll enjoy it as much as I did.

Begining to read To Kill A Mockingbird

ShannyBananny @shaggin (74987) • United States 22 Nov 15

I saw at the library that Harper Lee came out with a new book called Go Set a Watchman. To Kill A Mockingbird is a classic. I find it very interesting that she went so many years between writing the two books. I have never read...

Go Set A Watchman

angel_smiles @Lolaze (5092) • St. Louis, Missouri 5 Aug 15

I have heard that this book portrays Atticus Finch in a much different light than To Kill A Mockingbird. I can't bring myself to read it yet because of that. TKAM was my favorite book growing up, I must have read it 50 times....

ivan88 @ivan88 (193) • Canada 6 Dec 12

Recently watched it with my beloved. Such emotions, steady play of the actors, fulfilled characters... It is definitely an artwork in itself. Such a masterpiece in cinematography can never be repeated. Modern parents, it's a...

Names of Characters

anna728 @anna728 (1499) • United States 14 Jul 09

I remember when reading the book that many of the names were very unusual. For some examples, Atticus is pretty uncommon. Scout is unusual, even as a nickname. Boo is certainly a strange name. Did anyone else think this? Do you...

Harper Lee...

bloo_equinox @bloo_equinox (422) • United States 18 Nov 07

Why did Harper Lee choose to end PART ONE of To Kill a Mockingbird after chapter 11? It doesn't make sense to me. Anyone think they know why?

What was the most memorable scene in "To Kill a Mockingbird"?

webduck @webduck (238) • United States 28 Jan 07

There seemed to be so many lessons in this one story adapted for the movie. Race relations, respecting our fellow human beings, integrity, abuse, etc. I could watch this movie again and again. Harper Lee was able to capture the...
