"Jim, this is nice"

There are certain characters in literature we cherish, and certain relationships too.  I will always remember, for example, my first encounter with Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird.  Equally as grand to me is the character of Jim.  Nothing compares to the passages between Huck and Jim, in the few quiet moments they enjoy together, far away from the "sivilized" world.

Gasp!

Hi everybody!

I was NOT expecting what happened in chapter 31! I was reading and it was like an intense movie. I want to go into detail about it but maybe some people haven't read it yet so I wont give away the story :P Sorry guys haha

But as soon as we talk about it in class I might post something...

Crazy idea!!!

so today we were talking about wearing a mask and how lonely it is... and while my mind was just wandering off i thought of something really crazy!
We know that there is a book that comes before Huckleberry Finn and its about Tom Sawyer.
What if Mark Twain thought of the two characters to be the same person but with different personalities and "wearing a mask". A type of schizophrenia or something... i know its pretty far fetched but it could be possible...

Pap sketch

Ok, so I read the "Sheet of the week", and went on google and looked for representations for Pap, and he is exactly what I had imagined. I found a really good sketch of him, so those of you that do not want to see the sketch, just don't click the link...
