I would give Go Set a Watchman 3 stars. While it is interesting to see the continuation of Scout's story as an adult, the book lacks the charm and depth of its predecessor, To Kill a Mockingbird. Harper Lee's writing is still beautiful, but the plot is slow-moving and lacks a clear direction. The characters are also not as well-developed as in the first book, which makes it hard to connect with them. Overall, it's worth reading if you're a fan of To Kill a Mockingbird, but don't expect it to be as good.
