The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
4.0
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn is a fantastic adventure book. Mark Twain best captures the theme of racism in the book. I love the stories covered, from "running away from the father" to "helping Jim to escape."
In the book, we can see that Finn has a lot of personas; he has different identities every time he leaves his canoe and only when he is back that he becomes who he really is, "Huckleberry Finn". It's the same with society nowadays, we always put on masks whenever we interact with other people because we are too scared of showing others who we really are due to fear of judgement or adverse consequences that follow. This may be caused by past trauma or any previous negative experience, which is sad because humans themselves cause these "trust issues"
Overall, this is a great book to read. It makes reading easier because English is not my first language so when I see grammatical errors (which are intended), I can kinda understand what the person is trying to say.
