What Members Thought
I'm devastated. I read this book in a single day. I was hooked by the story and loved the childlike wonder of the way Pi looked at the world prior to the ship sinking. And then with the ordeal that followed the book became something more. I was completely sold but started to lose my conviction when Richard Parker goes blind. The encounters that followed that point started to sour me on the story and then in the last 30 pages, even that was explained and to some degree explained.

What I thought wa ...more
I read this a while ago and it was a book that stuck with me, as much as for how much it confused me as for how it moved me. I begged people to read this book so that I could talk with them about it...of course, we never got around to talking about it because we all read it at different times and then moved far apart, but I will revisit it briefly to decide where my final rating falls.
Strange book. I went through phases of liking it, hating it, then liking it again. It was a very readable and emotional story.
