I should probably read this book again, now that I'm older and "wiser" and because the last time I read it I was in 8th grade. I remember being so disappointed by this book, because I LOVE Huck Finn in "Tom Sawyer" which I've read multiple times. I don't remember specific criticisms as it was over 10 years ago, but this is making me want to reread it now and compare, especially cause so many loved it. 
 (Please note: I am going through all of my read books with an attempt to star and review, at some point, all of these books will have a decent review, I promise.)
