#2 Life of Pi

When the boat sinks it really throws the story into an information overload. The rushing of the flashback moments before the landing in a boat with a tiger gave insight into the logic that runs through Pi, of how the animals must have ended up. Once the realization of the tiger hits him, and after watching the attacks on the other animals by the hyena; he meets the realization of animalistic characteristics and the realization of what could happen to him. His emotions were tested by the physical pain of the animals, even sending him into tears. He still came out prevailing through this though; especially after watching Orange Juice (the monkey) show such human actions, as searching for her two sons lost in the water. This part of the book was much, much more entertaining, and the detail let me feel like I was almost there with Pi.
