Life of Pi by: Yann Martel

Back Cover: After the sinking of a cargo ship, a solitary lifeboat remains bobbing on the wild blue Pacific. The only survivors from the wreck are a sixteen-year-old boy named Pi, a hyena, a wounded zebra, an orangutan -- and a 450-pound Royal Bengal tiger. The scene is set for one of the most extraordinary and beloved works of fiction in recent years.

Rating: 4/5

I fished Life of Pi in about two days. Not because I was completely captivated by it but because it was an assignment for school that I decided to start two days before the test. Even though this was an assignment for school, this book was amazing. I wish I would have read it on my own before it was assigned to me, but even having not read it of my own free will it was so very intriguing. 

It can be a little slow at times, but if you keep in mind that the entire book is an allegory it takes on a whole new meaning. As you try to figure out what everything means and symbolizes you realize this book is so much deeper than what you originally thought. 

This book goes deeply into religion and other aspects of life. 

If you are looking for a book that will make you think then this is the book for you!

You can buy this book as a hardcover on Amazon.
