The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn by Mark Twain (read by Elijah Wood)

Disappointing and, honesty and sadly, uninteresting. I stopped about 40% of the way in.

Stuff White People Like by Christian Lander

It should really be titled Stuff Superficial Upper-Middle Class Left-Wing Urban White People Like.   Hit and miss definitely, but some of those hits were hilarious.

Partially recommended.
