Already two-thirds of the way through this book, and it is such a joy to read compared to many others on the list (like the next one!). The writing is just fantastic throughout this book, but here is my favorite line so far:
"Jim said bees wouldn't sting idiots; but I didn't believe that, because I had tried them lots of times myself, and they wouldn't sting me." Kind of says it all, doesn't it?
I would finish up with Twain today, but I have 150 pages to read for
class Tuesday night, and those pages are a damn sight harder to get
through - 16th century British stuff that will just bog you down, but I
need the Renaissance course to graduate, so I just have to buck up and
do it. And here I go.
