In many ways, especially in terms of the writing, it's easy to see why GO SET A WATCHMAN retains many of the qualities of a first draft. Yet, also in many ways, it is easy to see why this book caught an editor's interest (which I am so glad it did, because without it we wouldn't have had TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD). 
 GSAW introduces us to Scout (or Jean Louise) again, all grown up, a woman struggling to come to terms with her old life and most importantly her father, Atticus. 
 The narrative style is jarring at times, haphazardly shifting from third person narrative to paragraphs of first person interior monologue. 
 But what I really enjoyed in this book is the dialogue between the characters, which wonderfully depicts Scout's disenchantment with Atticus and her boyfriend Henry. 
 GSAW may not be TKAM, but don't let my rating dissuade you from reading it. If anything, it allows you to delve briefly into the mind of one of America's most gifted writers.
