I'm still waiting on the library to send it to me. I was hoping for a more modern book, but o well. I even got the cliff notes to this book cuz I have a feeling it won't be very interesting to me.

I'm on page 82. Its a good book for school reading, but I don't think it was appropriate for the book club...lol we may lose members from this one...but it is a classic that should be read.

I found an interesting quote that is applicable unfortunately even in present times: "******s you know, that's fetched up properly hadn't 'spectations of no kind; so all these things come easier."

I think something that would be interesting to discuss is what is the true meaning of "Uncle Tom"... the preface of the book says that the term was generated by folks who never read or misunderstood the book.
