Had to read it Freshman year. At first I hated it, but then I learned to like it. Enjoyed it actually. haha. Not so much the movie though, comes in handy for SAT essays. (: Atticus ftw!

I keep meaning to read it, but never really get around to.
I've seen the movie so I know what it's about, but I'll get around to reading the book someday ^ ^

Oh you SO should get round to it... Really, I can't recommend it highly enough.
I'm naming one of my children Jem, and the other Holden. Well, OK, no I'm not, but I would.

It was kind of boring.
The message from it was good, but it wasn't at all a fun read for me.
I was forced to watch the movie, to complete a project.

You know what it's a book i would never pick up if the school didn't make me read it but of all literature's I read in school, this was the best book in my opinion.

I didn't like it.
I actually don't like any of the required books we had to read, except for Les Miserables.
I loved the condensed version of that book.

I read it before and watched the movie.
In the end of September, all the FBLA members had to read a certain amount of chapters in the mall.
We were right in front of Victoria's Secret doing this.
I was so embarrassed to get up the podium in front of everyone, especially with our t-shirts. They made them so ugly lol.
I felt so stupid. All I was thinking about was the microphone messing up.

I actually really liked this book. We read it my freshman year, and although I haven't read it since, I can still remember bits and pieces of it. I think it's the only book I enjoyed reading in high school.
Isn't this like the 2nd best selling book, next to the bible?
I even had fish named Scout and Atticus. Atticus died the first time I cleaned the tank, then Hitler and Scout ate Henry Ford, then Scout died, so now I'm just left with Hitler and I haven't cleaned the tank since.

I don't honestly see how you can compare To Kill a Mockingbird to the Harry Potter series.
But, I had to read it in 7th or 8th grade (don't remember which).It was pretty good.Some parts were a little hard for me to understand at first, but it wasn't boring or anything.
I didn't like the movie, though.

Read it. Put it down, and then never picked it up again. It's not the best book in the world, and I wouldn't put it on my list of good reads.

It's defiantly one of the best book I've read for required reading.

I remember I enjoyed reading it back in 8th grade, but sadly I don't much from it. That's what happens when I read books for school projects and such. Except Animal Farm and The Jungle. Oh man those two were fun to read. :P
I think To Kill a Mockingbird was a very mature book at the time that I read it.. There were so many ambiguous implications. :P

i enjoyed the book & the movie.
when i read it 2 years ago,
i thought that the beginning was a bit boring,
but once i kept reading because i had to for school,
i started liking it.
it was pretty good :D

I read this book and I hated it. Only because at the time I was a hardcore mythology book worm and my stupid teacher gave us the assignment to read the book and turn in a book report =\
I don't take orders all that well in school, I hated being told what to read, what chapters to read, when to read them, bah!
Merge my post please -,-

the book was amazing! i wouldn't say the plot was too great, kind of cliche in my opinion, but the style of it was really well portrayed. telling it from scout's point of view was perfect! i loved the description of summer days, and i loved the scenes with dill :) it reminds me of youth.

I was so about to make a thread about this. Until I saw this one. But yeah, we JUST finished reading it today. I actually thought it was really good; I haven't really enjoyed a book that I was forced to read in a while. But seriously, it was actually really funny...
Things I remember from the book...
"I ain't ever heard of no (negro) snowman!"
"The Methodists had to pay off their church dues, so they challenged the Baptists to a game of touch football."
LMAO.
