A Note of Encouragement

I just finished reading Life of Pi.


Ten pages in, I decided that this was not one of my favorite books. I found it exceedingly hard to get into for the first 90+ pages. In fact, I considered giving up but thought I ought to finish a book that appears on so many collegiate required reading lists.

And sure enough, from page 97 on, it was a very fast and enjoyable read.

Anyway, I wondered if other readers had the same problem as I. Maybe they didn't have the fortitude to keep slogging through the disjointed Part One (pages 1-95).

So I decided to leave a bit of encouragement to keep plugging along.
