The Ending
How things ended with Jim actually surprised me. I expected Huck to be able to free Jim or take him to freedom. Instead it just ended up that Miss Watson died and Jim was freed in her will. I wanted some kind of reward for all of the adventures Huck and Jim had instead he would have been free anyway. I guess it didn't really surprise me that Huck moved out west because he may not have to be civilized there. I also wonder why Jim just now mentioned that the man shot in the back on the float house was Huck's dad. Anything surprise you guys?

Yeah. The ending shocked me as well! I think maybe Jim did not want to tell Huck about his dad because he possibly did not want Huck to have too many things on his mind...because he is is just a kid. Even though he ran away from his dad, I still think Huck somewhat cared for him. But I was kinda disappointed as well, I would have hope they would have some reward :( (p.s. what an adventurous book)
