" The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain is a very good book, and is also considered to be very important and representative of 19th century American society. Huck, the main character, is adventurous but at the same time naive about how his society works. It is good to have Huck's perspective, as the reader can learn about his world as he learns about it, and can also connect with Huck very well, and understand his thought processes. The book sends a message about how uncivilized people in Southern society were, ranging from families who locked themselves in a nonstop feud to foolish citizens who could not recognize their own family members. Often times Huck finds himself in difficult situations that expose his true character. Jim, as Huck's runaway slave partner, adds tension to the story (although it is difficult to understand what he says in his dialogue). One less good thing about this novel was the spots where major events are told very briefly, such as the King and Duke being tied up, as well as Jim suddenly being discovered to be free. But overall, Huck Finn is a very good book, and is a very important read for people who want to understand American society in the 1800s. "
