This book was outstanding! I can't believe it took me this long to actually find the time to pick it up and read it. I loved the tone of the book and the message the book delivered. The book really painted a picture of how things were in a small town in the Southern United States from the perspective a young girl who's a tomboy at heart. I was shocked how the trial against Tom Robinson turned out, even though I maybe shouldn't have been...that was a different time period than we live in now. The entire book, start to finish, was great. I felt the book was tied up well and I'm really glad that (view spoiler)[Scout finally got to "catch a glimpse" of Arthur "Boo" Radley before she died. =) (hide spoiler)]
