Tom Sawyer, Huckleberry Finn, classic rascals who keep getting themselves into heaps of trouble. A fun read, with solid, witty writing by Twain. Also an incredibly detailed and believably accurate representation of that era and all of its ugliness. Injun Joe?

In any event, it's a mostly fun story full of imaginary pirates, treasures real and imagined, and adolescence. Also, highest praise for Nick Offerman's narration of this book. He was such a pleasure to listen to in what would otherwise be a grinding daily commute.

Not a fan at all. I get that it's a classic but I thought it was really bad.
