In the latest rewrite of Twain's "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," "James" provides a new perspective from the viewpoint of Jim the Slave. The novel is viewed as a decent read with some slant, typical of such rewrites. However, it has been lauded as a powerful, engaging, and incredibly fast-paced story about racism and claiming one's own name. Readers praised the characters, settings, and adventures, noting that it is a perfect match for the classic, "Huckleberry Finn." One reader expressed a strong personal connection to the character of James, drawing parallels to their own experiences with a Black father born in Mississippi in 1903. However, there was criticism that the author depicted the story in a black and white manner without shades of grey. Despite mixed reviews, the book has been recommended enthusiastically, with some readers unable to put it down, and even expressing interest in a potential sequel. **
