I saw a news piece on the new Harper Lee book Go Set A Watchman and not only did it make me angry it ruined what the book was about when I havent gotten my Pre-Order yet. To Say that it shouldnt be on shelves this day in age because it has racist things within it is incredibly stupid. Harper Lee wrote that book BEFORE she wrote To Kill A Mockingbird. Even though it was set after TKAM it clearly shows she had a change of heart for the character based on how TKAM turned out. I'm not only angry that they had the nerve to spoil the book. I'm angry that people want to cancel book orders over a book that was written so long ago and is just now coming to light. If To Kill A Mockingbird gets pulled out of schools im gonna be pissed. That book changed my school life. First book I gave a shit about reading.
