I really liked "Where is Joe Merchant?" That book could've been made into a movie..... :D And my husband read it and liked it.....which is saying a lot because he really just reads historical novels and anything civil war....... :-?
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways - Pinot Noir in one hand - chocolate in the other - body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming "WOO HOO"

A Salty Piece of Land and A Pirate Looks At Fifty.

I'm reading Where is Joe Merchant right now, and all I can say is OMG. This book is so twisted, and some parts are just down right evil, but I can't put it down. Jimmy's imagination was really working over time when he wrote that book.

It's the child in us we really value
Here we are, with our fins up and our feathers flashing
Here we are, with our coconut shell brassieres chanting

Jimmy Buffett's Fiction: Tales from Margaritaville

Excellent collection of short stories. The best book he's ever published. I DO love both of the children's books also!

Books about JB: The Man from Margaritaville Revealed by Steve Eng.
