go to www.sparknotes.com ...they're like cliffnotes but free....yeah I know it feels like school but atleast read about the themes and motifs of the book...i think they help you focus more on the reading.

^^^^ I stayed on pinkmonkey.com back in high school when I was taking AP English... Even tho I decided Im not reading this months book club choice, my personal definition of an " Uncle Tom " is a black person that wants to be white, or a black person that looks down on other blacks and stereotypes their own people basically
