The Life of Pi Anybody here read this book?
It's by Yann Martel. I'm about halfway through. It's about a kid who after a shipwreck finds himself stuck on a lifeboat with a tiger, a zebra, and a hyena. The zebra just bought it. The tiger's name is Richard Parker. That's kind of how this novel goes. lol Anyway it's very strange in a good way. I found this interactive site based on the book. Check it out: http://pi.canongate.net/life_of_pi.htm | |

Like a reading circle where we all pick the same book, read it and then discuss it online? What about it? and true love lives on lollipops and crisps | |

This is a fabulous book! I read it ages ago and I loved the entire story. It was a great adventure and I highly recommend it. | |

Heh, I picked this up in the shop thinking it was a pop mathematical text, but flung it back in disgust when I realised it was something less nerdy than that | |
