Despite all the hype, I didn't really want to read this book. I don't tend to read books about the South, and considering this was rejected by the publishers at the time it was originally written, it just didn't sound all that worthwhile. However, I joined a book group earlier this year, and the ...
Pre-read: I know this book came out today, but I'm going to re-read "To Kill A Mockingbird" before I touch this, and I have it on hold at my library.

To Kill a Mockingbird is a long-time favorite book of mine, and Atticus Finch is one of the greatest literary heroes of all time. So, despite the buzz that this book shows him not to be what we think he is, I bought it the day it came out.Wow, what a roller coaster ride. Jean Louise "Scout" Finch is...
