I liked this book okay. The writing is definitely great and the story is fairly interesting. I really liked the factual information about animals vs. people and I preferred the beginning, the interaction between Pi and the different people he knows including his family. I really thought the end of the book was disappointing and their were some gruesome parts that did not need to be part of the book to further the story. I ended up skimming a lot of parts in the middle and end. It did not live up to it's hype but I am also glad I read it.
