Me pareció un libro muy ingenioso, divertido y con un poco de cruda realidad propia de la época; ya que tener un niño huérfano que está siendo tratado adecuadamente y el padre viene a perjudicarlo alejándolo de la persona que lo está tratando bien, me pareció algo triste. Así como la forma de tratar a los negros y hasta lo que ellos mismos piensan de si mismos. Pero por todas estás cosas, el libro me parece que logra revelar adecuadamente el contexto histórico en el que fue escrito.
The ending was contrived and frustrating; I'd forgotten how annoying Tom Sawyer is. Otherwise, I appreciated reading this classic.
Given when it was written, and when and where it's set, the n-word is appropriate.

so it wasn’t awful… my favorite part was the notice in the beginning that warned against trying to find motives, morals, or plots in the story. i feel like i pressure myself to always always always look for the deeper implications of a work after my time in APs, so it’s lovely to have the author tell you just to see a tree for a tree and a river for a river.
i can see why this book was beloved by young adults at the time of its release- it truly is an unpredictable adventure. however, i sometimes craved something more emotionally intense from huck & his interactions with the world. i found myself sick and tired of the kings & especially tom sawyer by the end of the book. tom sawyer is a brat. convince me otherwise, i dare you.
disclaimer: read this so that i could enjoy james by everett.i was never required to read it in high school, but i have heard many grievances of those who were.

Huckleberry Finn is the sequel to Tom Sawyer. It’s told first person in Huck’s voice . The story is a series of adventures undertaken by Huck, Jim, a runaway slave, and Tom Sawyer. The secondary characters are mostly over-the-top stereotypes, and I don’t mean that in a bad way. There’s plenty of commentary concerning slavery, con men, poverty, religion, and life in rural America in the first half of the 19th century. Highly recommended.
