Huckleberry Finn
5By Huck's best friend.I think this was my twentieth time through this book. Nutthin’ bettah.Great American Story
5By Linkus12A fantastic growing-up story mirroring America’s own growth as a nation, and serves as a landmark for how far American society has come from its own historyI love this book
4By msjsjssjsjsdd(#(I don’t own this version I own the paper back/physical copy version but nonetheless this is still a great story it does use the n word like over 200 times (that’s why I am giving it 4 stars) and I didn’t like that it was kinda offensive in today’s world but nonetheless it’s still a great book for people who is tolerant of the n word being used so many times but just because it uses the n word it should not be banned because yes it is offensive today but not back then and I have been hating that books have been banned this year like dr Seuss! or Disney films like song of the south,Peter Pan,dumbo,Fantasia etc (with the exception of mein kampf because that was a horrible book) but yes some of those things are offensive today but that doesn’t mean that we have to erase them from the world their are worser things to banned like mein kampf!The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn

5By Mr Piggy 2UI have loved this story ever since I had to read it in high school 50 years ago. It reads more like a series of short stories that are all based on the same premise but tie into one another.The Honest Reader
3By Bells in my headTo be completely honest this book is good but absolutely not one of the best so called “classics” out there. It is the first Mark Twain book I have read and I have read. Probably the last. Not because I disliked the book or anything, just because i didn’t really do it for me personally. The old southern dialect was almost as hard to follow as one of Tom Sawyers childish schemes and the book didn’t really have an over all message. There was some slight internal conflict with Huck when he was debating what was right and what was wrong in terms of freeing a salve. Huck decides on what he fees is the morally wrong thing to do and sets Jim free, but the interesting thing is reading this book 200 years after it was written because setting a slave free in 2018 would obviously be considered morally acceptable but when the move was written it might be looked at differently. There were some great scenes in the book when Huck and Jim were venturing down he river in the raft, but that wasn’t enough to make this story great. Huckleberry’s fast talking and shoot from the hip antics were amusing when It came to getting him and Jim out of trouble, but again this wasn’t enough to make this story great. I also really disliked the entire section concerning the Duke and the King. There schemes seemed far fetched even for this particular story, and there exit from the novel was anticlimactic. Sure thy were shown tarred and feathered, but a final dialogue between Huck and the two rapscallions would of been nice. Over all, in my honest opinion the book was a 3 out of 5 stars.Good read.
