The connecticut yankee was a really good book i enjoyed it. I included some parts that stood out to me the most and what caught my attention while i was reading and which causes me to read more because it drew my attention. In all i give this book a solid 8.5/10 because the author could've gone more in depth with what had happened but he did do amazing in some chapters with great details.
I would recommend this book to anyone who wants to read a book by Mark
