I'm in the middle of "Life of Pi" and it hasn't really engaged me, but since it was so highly recommended, I keep on reading, determined to finish it.

Actually I'm not reading at all, but listening. I bought it from Audible, and I am listening while exercising. Maybe it's not the book that doesn't interest me, but rather the exercising!

People who like straightforward, realistic stories about everyday events that don't require any suspension of reality would probably not like Pi.
