“To Kill A Mockingbird”
The novel starts calm as a wind, then it starts to steadily increase its pace. By the end the storm comes and changes everything and stops just when we want to feel it more. I didn’t like this novel at first because I was biased. I was annoyed that I had to read it over the summer and I went into the story with that mindset. Now, looking back, I realize how deep the story goes and how intricate all the characters are. And the ending is truly something else with an incredible twist.
Overall: 10/10, would read again.
“The Catcher in the Rye”
This novel is about a kid with mental issues in which nothing happens. I mean nothing. I can’t even remember the main character’s name and I still hate him. He has a sad backstory that is supposed to make you feel bad for him, but he is a jerk to everyone else in the book—except his sister, whom he begs for money when he spends all of his. He constantly pushes people away that want to help him and he lies to everyone, including himself.
Overall: 2/10, reading this was worse than watching “Morbius.”
“The Scarlet Letter”
Written in 1849, this novel is only 30 years younger than Copley Township, and the only people still reading it are in Honors English 11. The novel isn’t horrible but the way Nathaniel Hawthorne writes is extremely outdated and there’s too many time jumps, making it painful to read.
