James by Percival Everett

5.0

JAMES is a brilliant reimagining of Adventures of Huckleberry Finn from enslaved Jim’s perspective. This is a fast-paced, adventurous read infused with Everett’s biting humor and creativity. It’s playful, tender, harrowing, and incredibly smart yet readable. James is an intelligent, compassionate, and entirely capable character and I would’ve gladly read 100 more pages from his perspective. This one is bound to be a modern classic and I can’t recommend it enough. All the stars! ✨
