With that said I am not as far into To Kill a Mockingbird as I thought but would like to discuss Part 1, especially with those that are reading for the first time like me.
I was surprised not to see Bookstores promoting TKAM for such a great classic anniversary though.
Part 1 - Chapters 1 - 11
What was your first impression while reading?
I had a hard time getting into it actually then I started enjoying Scout and Atticus, they are my favourite characters for sure.
Did you note a favourite scene, what was it about?
When it started snowing, the reactions and the building of the snowman, that was a priceless moment for me.

I love the gifts in the tree, I was heartbroken along with them when the hole was cemented up.
Did you note a favourite quote, please share?
said Atticus, "but before I can live with other folks I've got to live with myself. The one thing that doesn't abide by majority rule is a person's conscience."
How do you react when a books title is revealed, it always makes me smile.

I enjoyed reading your thoughts on this novel. I love that quote too! And I remember being sad when they cemented the hole in the tree.
