Harper Lee Passed Away

Harper Lee wrote a remarkable debut novel, "To Kill a Mockingbird," in 1960. The story was about justice and race. The novel become an American Classic and many high schools took the story as their text book. She died of age at 89 on Friday. 
To tell the truth, I didn't care much about the novel. I happened to see some tweets this week and I got interested in the story. I downloaded the title from kindle and started to read it. And the news came. 
I think many people might read the novel for the first time like me or again after knowing the news all over the world. Stories have such a power.
