Adventures of Tom Sawyer by Mark Twain

p. 234
I finally read this book. I have started it so many times. It was a fun read, especially for a classic from the 19th century. I enjoyed it. I've seen movies and shows about it. It was interesting to see the differences from the films and TV shows. Like Tom's friend that is forgotten, Joe Harper. The famous funeral part where they show up for their own was not just Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, but also Tom's closest school pal Joe Harper. The book was also involved more violent parts and gritty scenes then is usually included in the adaptations of the book. I'm glad I got to actually read the book. A true American classic. Makes me want to visit Hannibal finally even more now.
