Let me preface this one by saying I did not physically read this book, but we listened to the unabridged audiobook on the drive to San Francisco. Can you believe I had never read this book before?! I originally thought I'd grab it because it was one that the hubby read and really enjoyed, but because I knew he would be dosing in and out (he normally falls asleep easily in the car) it would be okay for him to miss some of it. I don't know what I was expecting (for some reason I thought that the trial portion had to do with Boo Radley), but it blew my mind. I can totally see why it is a classic. It touches on so many different issues and really makes you think. This book is not only relevant when it was published almost SIXTY years ago, but still touches on hot button topics and social justice issues that we continue to face today. I would give it a 10 out of 10.
