I really liked it. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I never wanted to put it down. Pretty slow in the beginning so you kind of have to bear with it but, it’s crucial background and character building. It is essential to the book. I really enjoyed it :)

Less about the tiger, more about surviving at sea (valid).

This book deals with the extreme situation of being lost at sea for several months and everything that goes along with it. For the majority of the book, the main character is sevearly dehydrated. This is a book about trauma and survival and spirituality/religion.

I mean I’m glad I read it. As another reviewer said it was like an info dump, an absolute overload of information. The plot moved along slowly that I really had to force myself to read.
