My boyfriend and I read this book out loud together, and I wish we didn't. Neither of us was excited about this book, though so short and by a well known author we felt compelled to finish it. Honestly, If I read this myself I think I would have enjoyed it a bit more. Think of this as a 2.5 star, I really liked tenacity of getting the fish and in the end his hard work [ gets eaten by sharks! (hide spoiler)] unrewarded, and he is left with just his pride in the end. ~Ashley
