This is great! It is now the first book I've pre-ordered.

To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the few books that I regularly reread. When I bought my first ereader I donated all my paper books to charity naively thinking I'd go all ebooks all the time. I've been in Mockingbird withdrawal for far to long.

That's spot on for me. I'm currently reading the latest Flavia de Luce by Alan Bradley and thinking "What an unpleasant little girl but oh, so much fun!"
