In this book that I'm reading there are two main characters. The book that I'm reading is called "To kill a mockingbird". To me this is one of the slowest pastest book I have ever read because they really don't talk about mockingbirds except once. I really don't know if this book is really how to kill a mockingbird or if someone in this book is suppose to be a mockingbird. The setting of this book is probably in the south because almost all the characters talk in a southern accent. So far the main characters haven't done anything interesting or dangerous that I really like to happen in books which makes get really board at some times.
"Shoot all the blue jays you want, if you can hit them, but remember its a sin to kill a mockingbird" This was a very important lesson that the main characters father told her brother Jem (This was said on page 103). When I read this I thought the book was going to get better and that the book was going to get more into killing mockingbirds but it was just a lesson about mockingbirds that so far I have read. Atticus, the father of the main character, said this to Jem because in the book Atticus neighbor explain that it's wrong to kill a mocking bird because the only thing that mockingbirds do is bring music into our hearts and do nothing bad which makes it a sin to kill a mockingbird. Before I read this book I never even knew that it was wrong to kill a mockingbird because I thought they were just normal birds but now I know that they are more then that. By the end of this book I wish to find what Harper Lee(author) meant by "To kill a mockingbird" because right now it's very confusing to understand what or who the mockingbird is.
In this book, the main character has a lots of protagonists that help her and influence her to do things. The person that helps and teaches her stuff is Atticus, her father. He also influences her to do things that help her learn things. One thing that Atticus influenced her to do with her brother is to live with a cranky old lady for a couple of days so that they could interact with her because they never had the best relationship and she would always insult her and Jem. At the end they became closer but unfortunately the old lady died. Her brother Jem is some what of a trouble maker. He influenced Her to be a look out when he wanted to leave a note to a horrible neighbor named Radley. Jem got really close to getting shot by a shotgun because he heard Jem coming to his backyard. The main character lucky escaped and so did Jem without getting unharmed. Atticus and Jem may both have different influences on her but she's still alright and living happily.
So far I could not relate to anybody in this book because no one really describes or relates to me in anyway. The main character and her protagonists do almost everyday things that normal kids do which really doesn't make me get interested to this book and gets me confused from time to time. There are only a couple of things that get me interested in this book and that's some of the crazy things that the main character and her family get trapped or get involved in. If it wasn't for this I probably wouldn't keep reading this book. This probably connects mostly to the world because there are some crazy things that happen to people these days which is sometimes very good or very bad.
