Not even halfway through, and I’m filled with a renewed gratitude for simple things that I often take for granted. We need books like this to shake us up, stir our hearts, and reflect on the hardships we lived through and the hope that carries us through.

It’s been ages since I’ve read Twain’s Adventures of Huckleberry Finn, but I’m loving this modern retelling (or recreation, really) of the story through Jim’s eyes—ones set on freeing himself and his family. You will move quickly through this adventurously moving story.

Fun spin on Mark Twain’s novel The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn but told from the perspective of Jim—a runaway slave. I love the way Everett has reimagined his character! Really enjoying it so far.

😭😭😭this book will make you laugh, cheer and tear your heart out of your chest.

Nail-biter!! I saw this book at a used bookstore in Pittsboro and had remembered putting it on my TBR. I was not expecting it to be this good!! It’s a page-turner. Well worth the $5

This book is precious and the characters are wonderful. Love the fanciful yet serious tone of the story—a bit of whimsy amongst the harsh landscape of Alaska and the couple’s past. A nice balance.

If this one isn’t on your TBR, add it. If it is, dont let it sit there too long. Wow

I have a feeling this one will leave a mark..

Ooo plot twist!

Not sure how some have called this boring! I find it to be anything but. There’s some backstory as the plot moves forward but overall it steams ahead full throttle. Enjoying it!

Re-reading most pages twice and highlighting! Tons of great info including the difference between Old and New Testament fasting.
