When you have high expectation over something and finally find the reality is not as good as you thought before, it might lead you into disappointment. It happened when I read the latest book of Yann Martel, the author of Life of Pi. Since I really enjoyed Life of Pi, therefore I was so excited when I found the latest book of Yann Martel. Moreover the story also talks about animals just like in Life of Pi, only this time the author focuses on a donkey and a monkey named Beatrice and Virgil. Unfortunately the story is so slow, confusing and lead me nowhere. I did not even finish it. Big disappointment :((

I think Life of Pi is little bit slow too, even when I reach the middle of the story, I was frustated about it. Maybe Life of Pi is my last Yann Martel.
Ana: Whew..I love Life of Pi, yes it's slow but there's 'something' about it that push me to finish the book :)
