I'm really enjoying The Autobiography of Mark Twain (though I admit I skipped the 200 page "introduction"). It's like sitting down for a chat with the old guy - and sometimes he sounds so much like my father! Especially with all the weird stuff going on in the news lately, I just felt so good after reading his little dissertation on how the "latest big news story that everyone is all concerned with" will be forgotten in a mere three months so no point getting too agitated about it at the time.
I think I'm going to have to add both Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn to my TBR pile. Reading Twain's autobiography makes me realize how little I have read of his. I think I may have missed something.
