Not my favorite, especially with all the casual racism. But it was written in the 1800s, so I can't fault it too much. The story itself was good, if not a little hard to read.

Not completely sure how I feel about this book, and definitely preferred the adventures of Tom Sawyer. There were huge chunks that I struggled to get through, and didn't really enjoy the first person perspective.

For all its entertainment value and humor, Huck Finn is a surprisingly cynical book. I wonder if lurking behind all the controversy (moral or racial) isn't the fact that it says some pretty damning things about humanity, and America in particular. Twain, DeTocqueville, and Socrates could have an interesting conversation about democracy; I expect they would all come to agreement pretty quickly. And then move on to the cigars. (Teaching Socrates about cigars would be the highlight of the evening.)
