Hey there. Just wanted to update everyone on a truly great book, Life of Pi by Yann Martel. My friend Ravdeep Sawhney recommended it. I finished it over the weekend and you might want to put it on your reading list. (If you are a geographically close friend of mine I would be happy to lend you my copy.)
This book won the Man Booker Prize for Fiction in 2002 so this is hardly some hidden gem of a recommendation. My tastes are usually a little more esoteric and I had never heard of the novel or the author. It is a very interesting and entertaining look at religion, zoology and survival. It is at turns funny and thoughtful and I highly recommend it. I won't summarize it here, but if you are interested in delving further, you can check out this link http://www.amazon.com/Life-Pi-Yann-Martel/dp/0156027321
Not everyone shares my eclectic tastes in reading, but I feel confident in saying that I can't think of anyone who wouldn't enjoy this book. That's a bold statement, so all you Yann Martel haters keep your opinions to yourself.
