This book is the best I’ve read in a long time. I love this survival type of book and how it gave us such a loveable main character the end of this book is a work of art and I loved it. It made me rethink so many things and it’s made the book very memorable. I still can’t decide what I really believe happened. The author gave us a story that seems like it should be straightforward and he turned it into something complex that makes you really dig deep. What do I believe happened? What would I do if I was Pi? How reliable is Pi as a storyteller? . So , yes, the book is as great as people say it is and it is 100% worth reading!
