[quote=Anonymous]I'm almost done with it. It reads like a typical (unpublished) first novel, and I can see why Harper's agent directed her to make the changes she did in TKAM. The writing is engaging and it is interesting to see the fledgeling archetypes of the characters I know from TKAM, but there isn't much of a "story"/the plot is slow-paced. TKAM is better, but I'm really enjoying this book. Note: I don't really like Jean Louise/Scout in Go Set A Watchman. She's 26, but still thinks and acts as a rough, childish tomboy, and she knows it but accepts this aspect of her character. If you first met her as a child in TKAM, you'll see that she did not mature or change much as an adult. Atticus is elderly and there is a lot of detail about his physical decline. If I encountered him "in real life", I would be inclined to blame his racist ideas on dementia.[/quote]
