I like reading excerpts of books online. It gives me a feel for the book, lets me know whether it’s one I’d want to pick up or not–similar to what I do in a bookstore: pick up a book, read the first few pages before deciding if it works for me or not.
Swine Not?
The official synopsis:
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.
Can a talented, sensitive pig survive the claustrophobic, neurotic stresses of life in the Big Apple? Can the McBride twins keep their precious pet from becoming the chef’s favorite entree?
