Funny and cute. My grandma gave this book to my dad as a Christmas gift and I read it while visiting. Time well spent ( )

I enjoyed the characters and swear I’ve encountered many of them. ( )

Pure chance I ran across this book, and darn glad I did-just the right mix of mystery and comedy-an absolute delight to read.

Aaron McCloud has gone to Ireland to visit his Aunt(who is young enough to be his cousin) . His reason for going is to spend lonely moments wallowing in self-pity over a woman who rejected him. The moment he lands in the Irish Country side the absurdity begins. There were times I was comparing this to a Mighty Python skit-the humor was just that good. Yes, there is a pig involved, and although not the star of the story his cameos are perfection.

it is one of those books Goodreads people either love or hate-I fell in love with the pig and was thrilled to see there are 2 more books after this. ( )

Some lovely language, but not my cup of tea. ( )

Garbage. Pretentious. Neither funny nor charming. I only made a few chapters. Sad because I have been looking forward to reading this for ages. ( )
