How to kill a mockingbird spoke to me in three
different ways. The first way was how it showed a heartwarming story of scouts childhood filled with many things that I remember when I was her age. This story just showed the innocence and joyfulness of our too short childhood. Reading some parts of the book like when Dill, Scout, and Jem where plotting against Boo Radley brought back a flood of old memories that I almost forgot.
The second way the book spoke to me was through the court case. This part of the story was the more serious and adult but meaningful part. What Atticus said at the court case was inspiring and humbling. Atticus's actions made me feel humbled by how good a man he is. Strangely enough at the same time I was thinking I could never be as good a person as him. Furthermore I also thought I could at least be a better person after reading the book and hearing this tale.
The third way that the book spoke to me was as a simple love story. There was an obvious romantic tone about Scout and Dill. That type of love isn't was really touched me though. The way Atticus treated,cared for, and loved Jem and Scout was truly heartwarming. It was remarkable how Jem and scout respected their father so much and disappointing Atticus was the motive that kept them from doing some childish things.

my writing style
What you can except from my blog is probably lots of sloppy misspelling and errors because it's a blog, on top of that I'll probably answer the assignments with as little effort as possible unless I really like the question. I have no idea what my writing style is to be honest so you can decide on that. I do like reading though, the magic treehouse series is the bomb.
