Saving Marty

Jeni Enjaian

I found this book absolutely delightful. I have no idea if a pig would actually act like a dog, as Marty does in this book but it pulls at the heart strings and makes you fall in love...with a pig!

I found the struggles that each of the characters goes through believable and appreciated that not everything ended as a fairy tale would, although some still does.

Griffin truly inhabits the narrative as Renz (Lorenzo), something I have never really paid attention to before. I did not look for that specifically in this book, I just observed it. The words on the page flowed freely and smoothly as if they came straight from Marty himself.

I enjoyed this book and would definitely recommend it.
