I loved this book! When I was little I loved books that were survival type stories. Like The Hatchet, My Side of the Mountain, and The Sign of the Beaver are a few I can remember. This book has quite a fantastic survival story in it. But then it's got this whole religion theme that fits into the story in a pretty crazy way. Alright, fine, maybe not CrAzY, but I thought it was pretty fantastic.
*edit: oh, I almost forgot, I gotta put in a little quote in here that I liked from the book, like I've been doing with the other books. Here's one that particularly struck me: It is simple and brutal: a person can get used to anything, even to killing.

i liked this book. i thought they way he thought and commented on things was hilarious! ...and i'm totally scared of getting lost at sea now. i think i would just drown and die.
i agree, this book is freaking awesome. did you know there's a sequel to the hatchet? the river - but it's not as good
