I haven't read it yet, it's a very famous novel that deals with race in the USA in the 1960's I believe.
I'm not amaracian so I didn't find the plot appealing, also the issues regarding slavery and such are really not among my fav. reads. it's supposed to be humorous though so I'd say keep going!

I finished the book yesterday. "mchappy"
It was definitely something that I hadn't read before. I think towards the end all the characters were just too many for me to keep track of, so I didn't really feel like I understood everything that was happening... and the language was a bit challenging for me too, as I don't usually speak english, but it was fun.
Maybe reading the book over the summer or something is a good idea (if I ever feel like re-reading it), that way I can focus more on the story when I don't have lots of school to take care of at the same time.

It is one of my favorite books. I read the book by myself, and then I was asked to read it for my English class. It was fantastic. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I agree, it is a bit slow in the beginning, and the characters are hard to keep track of. I remember confusing characters the first time I read it.
I watched the movie with Gregory Peck afterwards, and that was good as well. The only thing I didn't like was that they took out some interesting scenes and characters, but that's to be expected. Gregory Peck makes a fine Atticus, though.

I was required to read it at some point in my life. I didn't particularly like or dislike it. Not bad for required reading, tho.

As a non-American reader I think the setting seemed more alien but its an extremely well written book that has a lot to teach people
