Life of Pi by Yann Martel
Reviewed by Shanta
Have you ever been a situation where you were alone on a boat, in the Pacific Ocean, with only a tiger for company? Life of Pi by Yann Martel explains how Pi Patel struggles for survival as he overcomes the storms headed their way, finds his own food, and makes a proper shelter. He also learns how to make some peace between himself and the tiger, both trying to survive such a seemingly impossible journey. This book let the setting and characters seem real as it illustrated in detail what Pi thought and felt throughout the terrifying experience. However, in some parts of the book the story did not flow well, making me feel slightly bored while reading it. Yet this book is an inspirational book, recommended for anyone who enjoys reading books about survival.
