Re: Harper Lee is going to finally publish her sequel to To Kill a Mockingbird

I don't know... To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my favorite books, and Atticus is one of my favorite fictional characters, and I like the way the novel ended. It felt like a definite end, not something that needed a follow up.

If it's great then whatever, but I'm wary.

I'm just not even wary. I am so looking forward into being able to read something else from Harper Lee. Even if it's not great, it's an insight into her writing that predates To Kill a Mockingbird. Freaking win.

I can see where you're coming from (given I think she's a very talented writer)! I think if it was unrelated to TKAM I'd be more excited, because again, to me that book is perfect as is and doesn't require a sequel. However, I imagine I'll read it regardless, and who knows, maybe it'll be just as amazing.

From what I understand, this book was written first, and only when someone (her editor?) commented that they loved the character of Scout and were interested in her backstory that Lee went and wrote To Kill A Mockingbird. TKAM was alluded to in flashbacks in this manuscript, but fleshed out to be a novel of its own later.

Wow... That's actually difficult to wrap my head around. To Kill A Mockingbird is a classic, it's weird to think that it wouldn't even have existed if not for an editors curiosity.

That seems to bode well for this book though. At least to me.
