I finally finished Life of Pi! Being such a lengthy book, I thought I never would, but I did, and it is my second favorite book we've read in class (to the Crucible). I was, however, highly disappointed in the ending when Richard Parker just walked into the jungle and Pi didn't get to say his good byes. I felt that they had formed such a strong relationship that their separation would've been a little more heart felt.
In this part of the book, we learn another version of Pi's story, with real characters. At first I was super confused with what was real and what was fiction, like I was with most of the story. This part of the book was gruesome and disgusting, and I wanted to think it was fake. I've come to believe that the human version is "real", and Pi made the animal version up to help cope with the trauma. I understand, because this was the saddest part of the story to me.
Life of Pi goes on my top read list, and I definitely reccommend it to anyone looking for a good read.
