This one book was not on my original plan. However after some initial - oh not so interesting book.... thoughts, I simply chugged along. Yesterday I finally completed it. I am talking about a hard cover Unabridged and original text "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer". It being a classic and written way back in the late 19th century, the language is different. Yet once one has gone through initial few pages, the story is exciting. The image is from the last page of the book, captured through my phone.

Are you going to read The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn? It's a sort of sequel to Tom Sawyer.

@LadyDuck So you had to read the whole book, or just a part of it?

@LadyDuck Understanding Shakespeare's works would have been much more difficult to understand.

That's one book I read a long time back and enjoyed it. I guess I still have a copy of it in my book collection.

Good to just have a book out of our plan and find it interesting

@arunima25 Yes some books are enjoyable read. With classics, there could be stages when one can get a bit bored as their style as so different from contemporary but after that they are good. Yet I know many people around me, who might not be that interested in such books.

@allknowing It was an exciting read. The style is not contemporary but serious literature lovers would like this. Did you like this book?
