Kim

From Goodreads

Kim
Rudyard Kipling

As a story Kim meanders lazily through to a comical ending, not comical as in hilarious, but as in farcical. It wasn't really until that ending that I felt like I was reading a boy's adventure novel. Which in a sense, makes Kipling all the more impressive. It can grab the attention of everyone out there. Honestly, it wasn't a great read, but it was interesting and unique. The language is different, but not unbearable. Overall it's a pretty decent read and I wouldn't mind seeing this made into a teenage movie (it won't until colonialism isn't a buzzword anymore and some new outrage takes its place, but I'd go see it if it was made).
