Trying to choose my next read and The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is in the running. Any spoiler-free thoughts on the pacing?

Aoife, same question here. A quick note on the pace would help me make up my mind.

The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is one I am weighing up. The pitches in here are useful. A couple of lines about the tone can tell me more than a score.

Saoirse, i have added a boost too. Would be interesting to see how it sits beside the other choices.

For anyone considering The Adventures of Tom Sawyer: Could someone add a spoiler-free note about the opening? That is usually what helps me choose.
