James by Percival Everett
4.5
emotional hopeful reflective sad tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

This book looks back through history and with the knowledge of racism and time it tells the story of Huck Finn from the perspective of the black man helping him.. a perceptive and emotional journey where the characters are both lovely and awful and the hardships real and terrible and the hopes and dreams within reach the grader can cheer for their goals on this difficult and harrowing journey toward freedom with his family.
