Product Description

Best-selling writer Jimmy Buffett weaves an irresistible new tale---filled with colorful characters, wry humor, and the pursuit of a very clever pig.

When Southern belle Ellie McBride moves her twins from Vertigo, Tennessee to New York City, they wouldn't dream of leaving behind the family pig Rumpy. But the posh hotel where Ellie has found work (and living space) has "No Pets" writ large on its portal. So hiding Rumpy from the hotel staff---especially the ultra-carnivorous hotel chef, who would like nothing better than to transform their pet into pork roast---becomes imperative.

Too Awful for Words
I had never read a Jimmy Buffett book before - and I vow to never do so again after this painful experience.

Two-dimensional characters, have seen better plots in George Corman movies. Think the movie "Dunston Checks In" done with a pig. And the pig is the main narrator.

I would never have finished this waste of paper if it had not been a book club selection. Even the woman who picked the book, a parrot-head, admitted it was bad.

Jimmy Buffett NOT at his best
I've read all of Jimmy Buffett's books. If your thinking this book "Swine Not" is going to be anything like the rest your WRONG.
Midway through the book you feel as if your reading a children's story. Not at all what I expected. Its not horrible, but I would borrow it, not buy it.
