I would say this story had three acts: the Mr Arther mystery/ event ; the trial ; then the final attack

This book Might be one of my favourites The threads, the intertwined story, it all kept me entertained I think the weirest thing was having three main characters so pure It seems they never make mistakes Apart form Aticus’ final one that nearly leads to the death of his kid

But I loved them Really makes you contemplate your own actions and evaluate your choices when you have characters that to me seem close so right/ pure

It made me feel Didn’t make me cry but scout and especially aticus I would now consider to be true hero’s along with several of the other characters

It’s weird to have a story where the main character has so much go right for them But maybe that reflects the childish understanding of life Everything going your way with few worries

Of course the narrator Jean Louise - from the future - understands the insight that this was all a result of Aticus’s parenting- he is really the underlining intelligent do no wrong character, the Dumbledore of this story

And then of course Boo/ mr arther the classic hero/ kids favourite with the interesting element of his never stated but heavily implied blindness which adds to scouts character as her distinct lack of prejudice, or assumption about everything.
