Unlike most people, I did not have this book as required reading in high school and instead decided to read it 4 years after graduating.

I had several friends in other English classes that had to read the book, so I knew the basic plot and what the theme was. However, I still wasn’t quite expecting what was actually in the pages of this book.

This was written so well. I guess that’s to be expected with a classic such as this. It was written in an entertaining way, while still making me feel certain emotions toward certain characters. Even better, it was also written in a way that allowed me to understand what was going on and what the theme of the book was throughout the entirety of the book.

Overall, I enjoyed this much more than I thought I was going to and definitely understand why this reading is incorporated in so many English classes throughout the world.
