I first read this book in college's first year and wasn't matured enough to understand this book as deeply then. Nonetheless, I had loved it then, and I love it more now. The experience of seeing the Maycomb world from Scout's perspective is worth it. Once finished, it felt like a lifetime, and I wanted to go live with the Finches. Atticus will always be my literary hero.
I realized that evil is everywhere in the world, not just around me. And people get discriminated against daily based on their color, social status, education, and language. And how some folks can change their surroundings by being patient, humble, and just kind.

Just re-reading this as an adult, and appreciated it much more. I was assigned it in high school and I'm pretty sure that I read it with my usual "tear through the thing in one weekend so that you can get to other homework" method.
