  Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
HappyHomemaker of Oregon, 7/7/2011
I read this book soon after reading Tom Sawyer, so I was expecting them to be alike. They're not. But, once I set aside my expectations, Huckleberry Finn turned out to be a grand adventure as well. This one seems aimed less at children and more at adults, though not in a bad way at all. All that to say, this isn't just another version of Tom Sawyer. It's not as light and easy to read, but for a mature reader there is much to enjoy.
