Well, it seemed like 1000 years ...<br /><br />Fiona - Life of Pi is a good one for me too. I am also one of the non readers of Lord of the Rings.<br />Good luck with "soledad".

Life is too short. However, there is no accounting for taste. The world population can be divided into those who have read Lord of the Rings and those who haven't (that's not original to me a witty journalist came up with it but it's so true), readers who were captivated by The Life of Pi (me being one of them) and others who couldn't bear it.
