Well, what to say? Having really enjoyed To Kill a Mockingbird, I was very nervous about reading this 'follow up'/'previous' novel. Lets just say To Kill a Mockingbird was a far superior book. I'm not entirely sure about why I thought it wasn't as good a book. It may have to be how the characters in the first book were amazing, and incredibly honourable... They loose that in this book.
This book sees Scout all grown up and living in New York. She returns to Maycoomb for a vacation and to see her family. Whilst there, Scout discovers some unpleasant truths about her family. I can't write anymore without revealing what happens. I think that this is a case of a book that shouldn't have been published - it spoils your appreciation of the previous book.
