I have read that book too! It is so interesting. What do you like most about it?
I thought the vigor of the human resolve to push through that journey was unlike anything I could imagine.  
I agree. It's incredible the level of sacrifice they were willing to give. Even eating each other.
I know.  It's even crazier when the public found out that they had eaten other passengers and starter to ridicule the survivors...
Exactly. Have you ever seen Life of Pi? It is also a survival based story after a shipwreck.
I haven't, was it worth while?  It's just an individual correct?
Yes, I thought it was excellent. It was also made into a movie.
I will have to check it out.  Would you recommend reading the book or movie first?
I am always partial to reading the book first, though the movie was excellent as well. It's incredible to see what human beings are capable of.
I concur - I'll have to give the book a chance - Are there any other stories like that that you would recommend?
