This book could have been worse, and honestly it got a lot better about half way through, but I just did not find it a good story. It was a tough read because I just had no inclination to pick it up and unlike other books I saw no reason to pick it up against my will. Others clearly have enjoyed this book more than I, so I would not discount it entirely, I just did not find the life of a sapient pig to be all that interesting.

It's a very cute premise for a book: a learned pig writes the memoir of his life and how he became so learned. It's actually written like an 18th century memoir as well. Trouble is, this can get in the way sometimes. I was looking forward to a quick cute read, which it is at times, but it often feels like a legit 18th century memoir (which, I suppose, was the point). Overall, I did enjoy the book; it's a very unique idea. I just had trouble staying 100% engaged throughout.

4.5 Stars. Charming tale of Toby the Sapient Pig who, in real life, performed all over England in the 1800s.
