I started reading this long ago; I think it was in 2021 when my friend Cayzie recommended it to me. However, it took me years to finish it, not because the story was boring, but because my dog tore up the book's latter pages, so I couldn’t finish reading it. Luckily, I found an epub copy and downloaded it on my laptop. Although I am just starting to read classics, I know in my heart that this book would be one of my favourite books of all time. In the first part of the book, I found it hard to understand and grasp it because I was too overwhelmed with the highfalutin words of classic novels, but once I got the hang of it, the reading was manageable.
It was such an enjoyable experience to read this. I love how it was written in Scout's innocent voice, yet it discussed issues once considered taboo. I hated myself for only reading it just now, but I also loved knowing I would pursue a career like Atticus; this book will forever serve as one of my moral compasses when my future career in law makes me question my integrity and values in life.
