Tales from Margaritaville (Ballantine Books)
Tales from Margaritaville (Ballantine Books) | Jimmy Buffett
7 posts | 6 read | 1 to read
"Entertaining....The whole volume is a tribute to Buffett's storytelling skills and his essentially sunny, manana-influenced worldview."THE HOUSTON POSTJust where is Margaritaville anyway? It's not on a map, but it does exist, in the brilliantly creative, sometimes slightly skewed imagination of Jimmy Buffett. Now the man who brought us such memorable hit tunes as "Cheeseburger in Paradise, " "Changes in Lattitudes, Changes in Attitudes, " and "Margaritaville, " has turned his singular talent to writing short stories, some fictional, some not. The happy result is TALES FROM MARGARITAVILLE, a collection so vividly packed with restless dreamers, wild wanderers and pure gypsy souls that just reading it is an adventure itself.

Clive Cussler and Jimmy Buffett would be great island company! Sitting around telling stories, fishing, drinking margaritas. Throw in 3 hammocks, wifi, and plumbing and you can't ask for much more.🌴🌴☀🌴🌴

GarthRanzz LOVE your answers! Especially Cussler. He is one of my favourite adventure writers. I want to come to your island! 7y
TK421 @GarthRanzz bring your own hammock and come on over! 7y

1. I always loved the pub scene in the beginning of Treasure Island, and the bar scenes with Kvothe in The Name Of The Wind and The Wise Man's Fear.
2. Margarita on the rocks or a cold, cold beer. Pacifico in the summer, porters and stouts in the winter.
3. Flogging Molly or Gogol Bordello
4. Shopping cart, although my Scottish co-worker calls it a buggy.

Guysssss! I'm having trouble focusing because I'm still dreaming of this weekend. I saw Jimmy Buffett for the first time! 🏝🍹Endless margs and laughs

That being said, pen pals sorry I'm a little behind! Being out of town really set me back but the good thing is I have nothing on deck this weekend 😊

#Day10 #AugustPhotoChallenge #LaidBackBooks Being more laid-back than Jimmy Buffett may actually be illegal in some states and this book is a collection of random & laid-back stories-not a lot of depth, but the truly laid-back won't care--like his music it's fun & best served with a margarita or any frothy, fruity tropical drink featuring rum or tequila & an umbrella, while listening to his 'Songs You Know By Heart' 🍍🌴🐠🍹⛵️🍔🌺 #augustofpages
