it was ok
bookshelves: could-not-finish, borrowed-do-not-own

10 percent humorous versus 90 percent tedium. And that may even be a generous assessment.

The humor is actually laugh-out-loud humor - and I rarely LOL while reading - but the tedium... oh, the tedium! It became more and more of a trudge.

I may yet give this another try, as I really do *want* to read more Twain, but not in the foreseeable future.

Cr Maybe you should try Huckleberry Finn. It's his best book. This book is a travel journal, it's interesting for it's historical insights, and Twain's humor. If you are too young, undereducated, or lacking patience, I could certainly understand your having problems with this book.
