[close] Although I was a bit of a slacker in English class, this was a book assigned to me that I read and reread. By reading from the perspective of Scout, a young girl, you learn so many of life's lessons - some fair, some not - all set in a quintessential southern town.

•"Courage is not a man with a gun in his hand. It's knowing you're licked before you begin but you begin anyway and you see it through no matter what. You rarely win, but sometimes you do." - spoken by Atticus Finch, by Harper Lee, To Kill a Mockingbird
