Mrs. Dubose is unforgivably racist, raining curses on the children & denigrating Atticus for representing a Black man. Yet the darkness in her is balanced by her bravery and determination,& just as Atticus loves Maycomb despite its flaws, he respects Mrs.Dubose for possessing “real courage,” which he explains as “when you know you’re licked before you begin but you begin anyway & you see it through no matter what.”

Miss Priss! having so much fun reading this, love the bit of the mystery, mixed with childhood days and innocence, with the side of meaningful deep wisdom and lessons.

Feels so warm and fuzzy to be reading a good book again. Already remembering why I fell in love with this assigned reading freshman year (I believe), the beauty, wit, and charm of this novel leave such an impression on a young mind, I feel it was only yesterday I was reading these very lines. All so vivid and meaningful they never leave. love love love. And somehow I'm falling in love with every character again
