Despite all the hoopla concerning was it written first or if Harper Lee ever wanted to be published, this was a enjoyable book. I really liked seeing Jean Louise as a grown-up and dealing with the realities and mentalities of her southern hometown during this racially charged time period in America's history. I think that a lot of the character's reasoning, positions, motives made sense with their characters, even Atticus' character. The scene in the end with Jean Louise and Atticus actually addresses exactly what a lot of critics were complaining about and gives the why as well. People are humans and are prone to flawed logic even if it contradicts their actions and words at times. 
 Also, as an audiobook, Reese Witherspoon did a great job. Almost made me cry.
