The author of To Kill a Mockingbird has died at the age of 89. Great book that became a great movie.

I enjoyed both the book and the movie.
Haven't read Go Set a Watchman. I wouldn't consider it a sequel, I would consider it a first draft. Wasn't that the original story? Then editors told her to show it from the perspective of the young Scout. So, Atticus' personality probably changed with the retelling, as characters tend to take on a life of their own and go in directions you never planned when you start writing.
Good story.

She penned a true classic, no question there. Hope they're still making students read it in high school.
Rest well, ma'am.
