To Kill a Mocking Bird

Mockingbirdfirst Apologies for the late post but I couldn’t go a whole day and ignore what is perhaps some of the biggest book news in a long time. I have very few 5 star reads on my shelf because I’m very picky about books and I’m stingy with my 5 star ratings. To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee gets one of my elusive 5 star ratings. I’ve read the book multiple times and reread the book again last year and loved it again.

So, Harper Lee’s publisher just announced that they will be publishing a sequel to the famous book. The sequel takes place 20 years after the end of To Kill a Mockingbird. Read the full story on the New York Times here. Sequels always make me nervous especially when the original was so fabulous.

What do you think? Will you be reading it?

    My book club is very interested in reading it. If selected I will read. I read an article in the L.A. Times today and it said there will not be any editing to the book. “…we’re going to see a book that is not quite as polished, say Shields”… I will be reading the reviews when they start pouring in.

  2. I will definitely be reading it – I can’t bare the thought of missing out on such a literary phenomenon!
