Sissy Spacek was an outstanding narrator for this American classic. She had the Southern accent (of course), but she also managed to give her voice an innocence that made Scout come alive.
I loved Lee's use of language, and way she used small town politics to illustrate her larger points. I'm looking forward to delving a little deeper into the themes and characters for my book club.
Mostly, as I reflect back on the story, I wish I knew an Atticus Finch. ...more

I really enjoyed rereading To Kill a Mockingbird. There was so much more to the story than I remembered or maybe more then what my teenage self took in. There's a little bit in all the characters that I found enjoyable - Scout's not wanting to be a lady, Atticus's parenting skills, Dill's enthusiasm, Calpernia's strenghth, and Jem's intelligence. Definitely one that I will reread again someday.
