To kill a mockingbird...

You see, this school i'm going to tomorrow is requiring me and other students to read the damn book during summer. Here's the problem, I start school tomorrow, and I'm only on Chapter 21. So is anyone willing to save my ass and explain to me what happened after CH 21?

Agreed, it's one of the few required readings I enjoyed.

Quite a good book. But I don't have time to read it since I have to go to bed in two hours. SO maybe go into more detail about what happen. (So I can pass the test I have to take.)

Ugh, how dare they make you read that piece of garbage. Nobody should have to suffer through classics of modern literature; they ought to be ashamed of themselves for assigning such an abomination.

If you really have such a problem finishing it, read Sparknotes.

I was disappointed that negro died

T'was a decent read, I still find it ridiculous that schools ban it for its language, but has no problem accepting trash into its library.

personally, I enjoyed some parts but It does get tedious to me at some parts, (Which is why I haven't finished it yet.)

That one is on the top of my all time favorite books. So worth the read. Just start reading now and you will be finished by the time you go to school. Good reading makes an all nighter worth while.

Exactly.. Not only that but Summer went by too fast for me. (And the season summer, not the other one...)

I'm sorry for that. It's one of a select few that I've read at least a dozen times.

OP, read the wiki page or something.

We read this last year. It was okay as far as school books go, way better than Romeo and Juliet (gods what a bore that one was).

Baz Lurhmann did a very good adaptation, though. My school allowed students to choose between it and the script.

And here is why Bethesda games are dumbed down. Perfect example. Please bear with me for a minute. "read the damn book during summer"

Really now? Is it that bad? I am sure instead of surfing the net, (ironically reading) you will finish the book. See my friends, it's comments like this why we can't have lots of reading no more, lots of things have to be "voice acting" and any thought has to be taken out of games.

The book is not "damned" actually it's really good, so why do you have to insult us for something you can't bother to do? Sorry took a little bit of offence. Yes I was't happy to be forced to read it. But I am oh so glad we were. It is actually one of the great books to read in school that is not bad.

You do not like it, but don't knock it off for others who love it. Also watch the movie if you have too. We shouldn't have to cover for you when you had all summer to read it.

While I agree with this portion, the rest of your post is a bit far fetched to say the least. Summer reading and skipping summer reading in lieu of fun is nothing new and in fact has been around looooooong before video games.
