The Pig Comes to Dinner Audiobook

" Looking forward to the last book in this trilogy. "

" not as good as the first of the trilogy [The Pig Did It]. "

" I did not enjoy this as much as the first book in the trilogy, The Pig Did It. That was humourous and eventful. While this is a well-written book, the tone is more serious, or at the least the characters were far more introspective, and obsessive, obsessive at least with their ghostly problem. I was looking for a blast of an ending and was left with a feeling that the story didn't really end at all. I must have missed something because I didn't see a real resolution. Perhaps the last book in the series will not leave me feeling so bland. "

" Rather quirkey and mostly charming. "

" I have to admit to skimming a bit, but I did enjoy this. I wasn't a huge fan about the twist ending...which made the title take on a completely different meaning! "

" An interesting mystery that I read when I was reading Irish books during St. Patty's day week. "

" This book is second in the trilogy...in the first book the pig was an accessory to a murder. Don't know what to expect. "

" Book 2 of the Trilogy. More Pig fun. "

" Really 3.5 stars! "

" Much better than the first one - I enjoyed the historical aspect of the story and of course who wouldn't want to live in a castle. Just picked up the 3rd in the series for next week. "

" Silly but captures the Irish rhythym and idiom. "

" Don't listen to this; the reader for HighBridge audio is *way* too enthusiastic. On top of it, the writing is overblown and pompous. I quit somewhere in the first chapter. "

" Very fun story. I'm glad the story focused more on Kitty and her husband rather than her nephew. It was sort of sad that they decided not to blow up the castle and instead live with the ghosts. It was also sad that the pig came to dinner. "

" peer pressure. these are mildly entertaining, mildly humorous, and mildly gothic. For your old, mildly adventurous aunties (as manny says) "

" A weak 3 stars; I didn't find it as entertaining as the first in the series. Not enough show, too much tell. Repetitious inner thoughts of main characters, even if delivered in entertaining, humorous fashion. "

" fine little read, light and sassy. Good ghostly story of Ireland with tongue in cheek most of the time "

" It is a funny series, moving on to #3. "

" Silly. "The Pig Did It" was entertaining and light hearted, but the sequel was just plain ridiculous. "

" Fun book that takes place in County Kerry Ireland. Sequel to The Pig Did It "

" humorous ghost story set in a castle in county kerry, ireland. the humor is in the author's virtuoso use of language, a very irish style. it was fun to read. "

" I enjoyed this one but not quite as much as the first book in the series. I'll read the third one if only to see what the pig is up to next. "

" Follow up to the Pig Did It. This time a haunted castle to be blown. Are they ghosts or simply local descendants who look like the would-be ghosts? "

" If books were poems, this would be a limerick. Another lighthearted quick read in Caldwell's "Pig Trilogy" set in County Kerry. Caldwell is to Ireland what McCall Smith is to Botswana. "

" Same sort of humor as 'The pig did it' 2nd book of the trilogy. Fun read "

" fun sequel to "the Pig Did It" "

" The dialog was clever and the characters were likeable, and I appreciated reading some of the thoughts about Ireland. But basically I got bored with the book about 1/2 of the way through and ended up just pretty much skimming to the end. There just wasn't enough meat there. "

" 3 and 1/2 stars again. Love the characters and the crazy things that happen to them. I also like the mystical elements (seers, ghosts, etc.) and the underlying devotion of everyone to their homeland of Ireland. I also enjoyed the literary references and funny dialogue. "

" It takes a little time to get into the Irish rhythm of the prose, but once you get used to it, it is magically transporting.Not going to give away the ending, but the possibilties for the third in the trilogy are going to be interesting. "

" Wait until "The Pig in Hog Heaven" is published & I'll review all three. The first two were great books. "
