Having never read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (oops), I probably didn't appreciate this one as much as I could have.
With that being said, I still loved it. (As much as one can love a book so heavily about slavery, anyway...) The dialogue was incredible, the pace of the story was perfect, and the vengeance was just OH so sweet. It may be the first time I've ever internally cheered (and maybe even smiled a little) during an intense murder scene. I need to stew on this one a little longer to fully appreciate the themes and its message and all the reasons that made this book such a success, but for now, I'll suffice it to say: 5 ⭐️
