I'd been meaning to read this for a long time, and I finally managed to get my hands on a copy of it. Now this is a book is quite acclaimed, so I had very high expectations when I started reading... and to my surprise it really is THAT GOOD. The writing is excellent and the pacing is great, you never get bored and it's hard to put down. This is the kind of book that manages to make you both laugh and cry, and deals with many interesting themes, such as childhood and growing up, racism, justice, human nature, and all this in just 309 pages. Honestly, I've read books that were over 1000 pages long and they didn't have the depth of this little novel. It's a shame Lee never wrote any other books, 'cause this is simply the most inspirational and likable book I've ever read (and I don't think I'll ever read one with a better male character).
