Other Commentary:

I think it is definitley underrated, and more people should read it. Also, the film adaptation for it was terrible; it didn't portray Finch's internal struggles so the events of the movie seemed a bit more out of place and rushed since that extra bit of explanation and point of view were not there. Definitely read the book instead of the movie for the full experience.
