CONFUSED???????

Ohhhh WoW! I have to ask a question! Has anyone else read ahead? I have and I am starting to think that it isn't a good idea because all of the chapters are running together in my head and I can't divide out what happened in what chapter it is soooo confusing! Well, ummmm, I guess if you haven't read ahead I won't ruin the next couple of chapters for you (I know I hate it when a book gets ruined for me) but I'll let you know that some pretty exciting stuff happens. I just looked back through the book to make sure I only talk about the events that happened through chapters five through seven. I liked these chapters because the trio of friends gets a little bit more daring. At first they get caught by Atticus when they are trying to put the note for Boo on the window. It made me laugh about how they get caught in Atticus' lawyer trick. I hate it when my parents do that thing where they make you say something that you didn't mean to say and then you get into more trouble because you were hiding something and they caught you! Usually getting in trouble with just a threat wouldn't stop me from getting into more mischief. This proved true for Scout, Jem, nd Dill too. They took it a step further and actually got on to the Radley property and they peered in the window, got shot at by Nathan Radley, and then had to make up a lie about strip poker because Jem lost his pants. I started to get scared when Jem went back to the Radley place to get his pants. I thought it was really strange that someone had mended his pants for him. i think it was Boo! Any other guesses? I think that if I had been stuck in a house for a couple decades I might learn how to sew too. I think it is kind of sad that Nathan filled in the hole in the tree. It was probably Boo who had put all that stuff in there and that was like his only connection to the outside world.
