To Kill a Mockingbird

This book really holds up over time.
How can one not fall in a little love with Atticus, the single father who models compassion and empathy foremost, but also rewards curiosity and never dumbs down his vocabulary for his kids. And with Scout, who, over the years and through her own lens, learns these lessons well enough to teach the master.
The story itself is in turn heartbreaking, infuriating, and ultimately satsifying. But what took me into their world was the very rich characters, growing and learning throughout. I feel like I just spent some time visiting a warm family in the rural south in the 1930s.
For the audiobook, Sissy Spacek's reading is terrific.
