To Kill a Mockingbird
To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee


The unforgettable novel of a childhood in a sleepy Southern town and the crisis of conscience that rocked it. "To Kill A Mockingbird" became both an instant bestseller and a critical success when it was first published in 1960. It went on to win the Pulitzer Prize in 1961 and was later made into an Academy Award-winning film, also a classic.

Compassionate, dramatic, and deeply moving, "To Kill A Mockingbird" takes readers to the roots of human behavior - to innocence and experience, kindness and cruelty, love and hatred, humor and pathos. Now with over 18 million copies in print and translated into forty languages, this regional story by a young Alabama woman claims universal appeal. Harper Lee always considered her book to be a simple love story. Today it is regarded as a masterpiece of American literature.



My review:

Pace? Slow

Plot- or character-driven? Plot

Strong character development? N/A

Loveable characters? No

Diverse cast of characters? N/A

Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

My rating: 5 of 5 stars
Read for school is very confusing but very good.

Review: Rule #5: You Can't Trust the Bad Boy by Anne-Marie Meyer

Rule #5: You Can't Trust the Bad Boy by Anne-Marie Meyer He was supposed to be my escape for the weekend. I wasn’t supposed to fall for him. My life feels as if it’s spiraling out of control the moment Mom and Dad inform me that come Monday, I’m heading to Italy to “get to know” the son of an important business investor. Apparently, it’s my responsibility as a daughter of a hotel tycoon or something. I want to be a good daughter, but I’m tired of being looked over. I’m tired of having my life planned out for me. So when I run into Jet Miller, the bad boy with a motorcycle, I pay him to take me away for the weekend. He’s convinced that I won’t fit into his life, but I don’t care. I need this break. Two days of freedom quickly change into something more, and I find myself falling for Jet. Only, he doesn’t know that once our 48 hour escape is over, I’m gone. And I don’t know how to tell him. Some rules are meant to be broken. For fans of The Sun is Also a Star, To All th

Review: Wicked Minds by R.A. Smyth

Wicked Minds by R.A. Smyth I may have escaped their house but there is no running from Grayson, Royce, and Logan. Not when Royce knows my most precious secret, Logan refuses to let me go, and Grayson hates to see me remotely happy. As if I don’t have enough to deal with already, between worrying about my daughter and dodging my sleazy boss, not to mention keeping up my grades, now I have to worry about what Royce might do with my secret while attempting to get over Logan and avoid Grayson at all costs. Except Halston is a small campus, and at least one of them keeps showing up in my life. It makes forgetting they exist impossible. However, when shit hits the fan, they’re the ones I end up turning to. The only ones I can trust. Who knew my life would only get more complicated second semester? My Review: My rating: 3 of 5 stars This book was okay. The Split was okay, but I feel like this story is being drawn out more than when it needs to be.

Review: Link by Serena Akeroyd

Link by Serena Akeroyd LILY He’s rough.  He’s ready.  I’m neither.  I’m a sacrificial lamb just waiting to be slaughtered. A socialite spawned by a sadist whose life’s work is to cause misery in others.  My life is a prison cell, until  he  helps me find the key.  He’s not as dark or as dirty as they say he is.  His roughness stirs something in me.  Something primal.  Something no socialite should crave.  He’s a brother in an MC, a world that should be alien to me but somehow, it’s my first real home. It has rules and regulations that make no sense to me, but  one  thing is clear:  Society princesses and MC brothers aren’t a match made in heaven.  But I’m fine with ruling over hell instead…  LINK is the second book in the eleven-book ‘A Dark & Dirty Sinners’ MC’ series.  It is  not  a standalone. My Review: My rating: 5 of 5 stars This book is really good I really enjoyed this book and can't wait to continue with this series if you like Mafia or MC romance
