To Kill A Mockingbird is without a doubt my favourite book of all time, Atticus one of my favourite characters I was hesitant to read GSAW, and I guess I feel just like Jean Louise, desperately disappointed that Atticus didn’t live up to the standards I set for him, but also disappointed that I reread TKAM immediately before this so the difference in standard between the two is so stark
2 stars for the book, the half for the bits throwing back to Scout’s younger self.

This book would have been revelatory if it had been published when Harper Lee wrote it. Reading it now is almost painful. I skimmed through the second half, but mostly came away with frustration at Jean Louise's naivety and mildly self-absorbed view of the world. I understand that the book seeks to challenge her worldview, but the book just didn't do it for me.
