To Kill a Mockingbird, Chapters 12, 13, 14.

In chapter twelve, the absolutely sudden shift in Jem's personality was hard to grasp at first. It would be difficult to tell whether or not it was Jem who spoke, provided that it wasn't mentioned prior to what he said. While puberty can cause radical changes in a person, I felt that it was described to quickly, and that post-puberty Jem is unrealistically responsible. It may just be a matter of time period, but this still threw me for a loop. In chapter thirteen, I personally believe that Aunt Alexandra is the least likable character in this book so far. She is heavily domineering, self righteous, narcissistic, gossip-spreading, and, in general, an unlikable personality. However, around people other than Scout and Jem, I'm guessing she puts on a more gentle facade. As for chapter fifteen, I don't exactly have any actual comments on it. It was all relatively straight-forward. Of course, there is a large amount of comic relief with Dill showing up out of nowhere, but, aside from that, there isn't much to say.
