I did end up enjoying it some, but I found it hard to get into, and in general I think it's just a case of ‘this story isn't for me'. Huck Finn is a little too reckless and adventurous for me to not constantly feel like he's in danger. And Tom Sawyer is just.... a bad influence? Like that boy is just too much. Wayyyyyyy too much. I couldn't deal with him. 
Whenever The King and The Duke were around I was worried for Huck Finn's safety. By the time Huck Finn reaches Aunt Sally he has become more tolerable, and when Tom Sawyer shows up, Tom is clearly the worse of the two, which automatically puts Huck Finn in a better light. 
I don't know, there were some parts to enjoy, but for the most part it just wasn't for me.
