When going into this book I did not expect it to be as good as ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’, but I definitely expected more. To start off, the book switches from 3rd person to 1st person and I do not see where that was necessary. The whole plot was very not very interesting and just lead me to try and finish the book as quickly as I could, so I could be done. I do not like how Atticus was written in this book and ruins his character completely from the first book. Overall the concept was a good idea, but I can now understand why Harper Lee did not want to publish this and instead wrote and published ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ instead.
