published novel... www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/second-harper-lee-novel-to-be-published-in-july/ar-AA8W3xiPublisher Harper announced Tuesday that "Go Set a Watchman," a novel the Pulitzer Prize-winning author completed in the 1950s and put aside, will be released July 14. Rediscovered last fall, "Go Set a Watchman" is essentially a sequel to "To Kill a Mockingbird," although it was finished earlier. The 304-page book will be Lee's second, and the first new work in more than 50 years.
All I can say is "WOW!" I remember reading this book in Jr. High. It had a huge impact on me and I always wondered why the author never wrote anything else (when I find an author I like I tend to devour all their books). It's not available for pre-order on Amazon yet and I have to wait another 5.5 months?!? Oh well, I've waited this long...

Ooh! I also loved To Kill a Mockingbird when I read it in school, I'll definitely have to check this out. (and this will give me an excuse to read that again!)

RIP Harper Lee. I loved To Kill A Mockingbird. I was very disappointed in Go Set A Watchman. I found it very dull.
