I read Go Set a Watchman in August, and I wanted to see what all the hype was about To Kill a Mockingbird. I have to say I related to Go Set a Watchman much more. I enjoyed the grown up Jean Louise and her passion for civil rights. I wanted more from To Kill a Mockingbird. I think I may have enjoyed it more from Atticus' perspective than from Scout's as a kid. There was too much day to day randomness to hold my attention.Kate Ungerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11405706702674012331noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8652886466659402180.post-82085600432556871422016-03-22T13:21:12.590-07:002016-03-22T13:21:12.590-07:00I've never read any of these.
