did not like it

While the plot was very gripping and well-written, the book didn't actually instruct me on how to kill a mockingbird. I bought this book intending to do away with this obnoxious bird that's always sitting in my backyard and making distracting noises. I had hoped this book would shed some light on how to humanely dispose of the bird, but unfortunately it was this story about a lawyer and a falsely-accused criminal. As I said, the plot is great but nowhere in the book does it say exactly how to kill a mockingbird.

message 14: by LE (new) - rated it 5 stars

LE the book title is based on the metaphor "to kill a mockingbird". All a mockingbird does is sing, and to kill it is the same as putting an innocent man in jail.

LE Success Kid, if you read the book you should realize what the whole point of the book was and not have to ask if there was a bird or not


Tonia Hahaha great review


Colten Fry To be fair, it's not called How to Kill a Mockingbird.

Well if you know what the internet is then search it up. it probably has a backstory towards it.


Hafiza The novel's title comes from a conversation between Atticus and Scout where Atticus states that “it's a sin to kill a mockingbird� because they simply sing their song and never harm others. The mockingbird is used as a symbol for Robinson, who was innocent and never hurt anyone, yet was shot dead.
Reference: banned books

Rocket science BOOOOOM
