Fantastic. Huck and Jim are fantastic characters, the plot zips along, and the section where they drive Aunt Sally crazy with the missing items made me laugh out loud. It was a great to read right after Abraham Lincoln Vampire Slayer, because it covered the same basic time and geography, and after The Day They Came To Arrest The Book, which was about censoring Huck Finn. Now that I've read it, I think it would be a great book for a classroom, if handled carefully.(less)

This is a book meant more to illustrate the various perspectives in a debate on censorship than entertain. And in that sense it does a good job. Unfortunately, though censorship, and in particular the censorship of Huckleberry Finn, is a timeless issue, this book manages to date itself. First there are the rather hilarious references to communism and a fear of the Russians. Then there are the potshots the book takes at feminism. It's not just that the feminist student is an extreme character, because really all of the characters are written to represent extremes, but the little disparaging comment made by a female teacher about gender neutral language and the term Ms.(less)

One of the strengths of this series, I think, is the way the author doesn't sugarcoat war - people die and the characters we come to love aren't spared. But I hated the ending. It felt sort of like a cop out. Katniss doesn't seem to grow as a person or a leader and that rang false for me. (less)
