To Kill A Mockingbird: Part 1

To Kill a Mockingbird has not been as bad I thought it would be. I like how the book is just straight foward. There has been nothing confusing and I acutally think I understand everything that is going on.
So far I think Scout has been my favorite character. She is not afraid to just be herself and I admire that. I think it is kind of sad that the people of that time can't accept that though. People like Mrs. Dubose would always bash her for being in overalls and not in a dress. However, it makes me wonder, would Scout be the tomboy she is now if her mom was still alive? I think that she wouldn't be as tomboy because she would also have a woman figure to look up to. I think Scout is a strong little girl, but what will happen when the prejudice gets worse. Will she be able to ignore it or go crazy?
