Step aside "I know, right?" There is a new cool thing to say.
From now on, everyone should use what I will lovingly refer to as the triple exclamatory. All you have to do is take three words, insert dramatic pauses, and end with an exclamation. It is the
coolest. thing. Ever!
So spread the news.
And actually, keep saying "I know, right?"
Because I can't get enough it.
Thanks Society, for all the improvements to our language,

The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn
The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
My Favorite Quote
"If you notice, most folks don't go to church only when they've got to; but a hog is different."
"The pitifulest thing out is a mob... they don't fight with courage that's born in them, but with courage that's borrowed from their mass."
This book was a good look into the perspective of slave owners, and the mentality and justification that enables someone to reach such a place in life. Twain uses a child's perspective to make the conclusions that adults are too morally desensitized to make.
It bears a resemblance to "To Kill a Mockingbird," although I would say that book does a better job of getting to the meat.
