Life of Pi | Yann Martel

Pickpick

The life of Pi by Yann Martel follows the fictional first hand recounting of the tale of a boy getting stranded at sea, with more company than he could ever ask for, and somehow surviving. The first part of the book establishes the first person point of view as Pi introduces himself to us.

James.Ruddick Although I‘m not finished it yet, Martel‘s distinct voice and gracefulness in his writing has me absolutely hooked. If you like books that craft characters that that feel like real people you‘ve known for years, this is a must read. 13mo

In the second book in the Arc of a Scythe Trilogy, Rowan follows his calling to become a scythe-slayer; tracking down all of the scythes who are abusing their power and giving them a premature retirement. However, on his journey down this path of becoming the scythe grim reaper, he finds many uncomfortable visions of familiar faces and a litany of hardships reminiscent of the cosmic horror genre.

Meanwhile, his estranged lover, Citra Terranova, A.K.A. Scythe Anastasia is also working to define her identity as a scythe as she completes her apprenticeship under the Grande Dame of Death. But, the scythedom is infected with an ever growing virus. A virus whose main goal is to exterminate people like Citra, and the only way to stop it is to work with allies new and old to uncover mysteries as ancient as the scythedom itself. 14mo

If you like books with great worldbuilding, you‘ll probably enjoy this, but I do think the first one was much better. 14mo
James.Ruddick [PT.4]

Although I feel like Thunderhead had issues with some of its side plots, characters, and pacing, it did a good job at expressing themes of how the line defining ourselves is increasingly blurred as we blend with progressively advancing technology, and how large the moral gray area can be when humans are given the power of gods. 14mo
MissYaremcio Nicely done James! The third is the best (I think!). 6/6 14mo
