I found the writing style dense and confusing. It was really hard to read, and I can only explain the basics of the plot, because it confused me.

I had a mixed reaction to this book. The beginning was rough, and I didn't really like it. It picks up though, and became tolerable, even somewhat enjoyable by the end. I still don't really like Finch, but the rest of the cast was fine to lovable. Nice message at the end, so I can see why people like it.
