I actually loved this book. It was a bit meandering and episodic, but I found Huck Finn an endearing sort of bit. Tom Sawyer on the other hand, is a very different sort of character, I disliked him so much! The last quarter of the book was about ruined on account of him. Would’ve like to had more of Jim & Huck’s River adventures than Tom Sawyer.

After you get over the uncomfortably blazing racism, its a pretty good story.

I've heard a lot of things about this book and quite frankly I did not like it whatsoever. It was quite boring

Even better than Tom Sawyer. So much happens and all the characters are unique, interesting and memorable!
