Life of Pi

I finished this a couple months ago but never got around to writing a review. That's too bad because it would have meant that you'd have another two months to go out and find this book.
Definitely one of the more enjoyable books I've read in a long time. It's the story of a young Indian boy who is traveling to America with his family, but the boat sinks in a storm and he spends the entire time on a lifeboat in a precarious situation. The writing is fresh and inviting and I wanted to befriend the main character, Pi.
It is worth noting that the book won the Man Booker Prize in 2002. This means there is a pretty gold seal on the cover. It's nice.
One of my favorite books I've read in the last few years. Find it.
