Going to reread To Kill a Mockingibrd, then buy this one!
Are you going to read Go Set a Watchman?
-
yes!

I'm very torn. I would love to read it. But given all the controversey around whether not Harper Lee really wanted the book released, I'm having issues with whether or not I will.

@Truth Bombs: I had similar concerns! This article helped address them for me:
I will wait for a while after publication to see what the reviews are like. If the book is just bad, I can't imagine she would've wanted it published But the first chapter definitely caught my attention!

I'm torn.
Also, I follow the NY times on Facebook.. and they posted this status message along with the link to this article:
Exclusive first review of Harper Lee's "Go Set a Watchman"
Atticus Finch was the moral conscience of "To Kill a Mockingbird." In this new novel, he's a racist and a source of pain for his daughter, Scout.
