Danielle asked this question about James:
Would you reread Huckleberry Finn before reading James? It has been many years since I read the original and I can't remember much about it.

I chose not to reread it before reading James and I still really enjoyed it. It was actually surprising how much I remembered from the book as the story progressed, so that might happen for you as well. So I guess to answer your question, no I wouldn't reread it, but if you want to, I'm sure it wouldn't hurt. I don't remember Huckleberry Finn being an overly long book, so I am sure you could finish it pretty quick.(less)
