Reader Reviews & Comments
Searching for Jimmy Buffett (hardback edition)
"I’m a big Buffett fan so I picked up a copy of Searching for Jimmy Buffett at the Florida Book Festival and have to say it was one of the funniest books I have ever read. Couldn’t put it down."Sharon Biddle
Searching for Jimmy Buffett (kindle edition)
"What a great read. It kept me laughing the whole time. I am looking forward to any new books by this author."JMOROCKS
Searching fro Jimmy Buffett (hardback edition)
"I received this book as a gift and will always treasure it because to me it’s already a classic. I can honestly say that reading this novel was an exceptional literary experience. The characters, a crazy mix of varied nationalities and their development, and especially the dialogue that at times flows like a hilarious scene from a great Abbot and Costello movie, keeps this book running like a fine tuned engine through a maze of a story line that all comes together in the end. The author’s writing style and pace move the story along like a wildly entertaining symphony that rolls on for nearly 430 fun pages. Not since Catch-22 have I had so much fun reading a novel. I am already into my second reading and recommend it highly to anyone with a love of a great story, great characters, and the special sense of humor that appreciates political, ethnic, and social satire. I would love to read a sequel. If you don’t have it – get it. Thanks Rosie for this great gift!"

Monkey, Bonus Edition (paperback)
"If you like King Kong, Romancing the Stone, Gilligan's Island, Indiana Jones, Tarzan and crazy college fun adventures, you are gonna love this one. This isn't your average Spring Break Beach trip, either. The author once again brings the characters to life quickly and paints vivid word scenes that make your mind wander to old adventure movies of the late thirties, forties and fifties. Especially if you are a fan of Erol Flynn or Stuart Granger or John Wayne with a little Jimmy Buffett flair thrown in for good measure. It doesn't hurt that the grandfather of one of the handsome "about to be lawyers" from Princeton is filthy rich and a cool old dude to boot. And you know how we love to know and talk about the rich folks! It's a fun and well imagined story that will make you sorry that it ends. You'll want to know when the "Crimson Glory" will sail again?"Martha
The Last Ghostrider (paperback)
"One of the most compelling stories I have read in a long time!! some of the wording was so true!! and believeable!! so outstanding!! so far I have read all of frank moscos books and have enjoyed every one of them!! thanks frank for being such a outstanding author!!!"Becky S. Holley
Searching for Jimmy Buffett (paperback)
"This author’s approach to the Jimmy Buffett philosophy was certainly a pleasant surprise. I am a long time Parrothead and Buffett fan and really enjoy an entertaining read, especially in the vein of a fun time Buffett song such as Fruitcakes and this book certainly has its fill of fruitcakes. This book is just plain fun! Also rich in content and characters. Over 400 pages of situation comedy that won’t quit. I definitely recommend it. Be prepared to be surprised as I was."

Searching for Jimmy Buffett (Kindle edition)
"Entertaining read. If you've read all the Buffett books, this is a refreshing relief for literary Parrot Heads who are waiting in hope and anticipation of more writings from the master story teller himself. Full of the kind of bizarre wackyness experienced by Tully Mars and Frank Bama. Read and enjoy!"

Searching for Jimmy Buffett (hardback edition)
"...a hilarious political satire novel. The more I read the more the book reminded me of watching a Cheech and Chong movie. The story moves at a very fast pace, so really for a large book it can be quickly read. The more I read the harder I found it to put the book down. ...I found the book quite enjoyable."Lynn F. for Readers Favorite
Searching for Jimmy Buffett (paperback edition)
"I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. The storyline moves along at a steady pace while developing the zaney characters quickly and making the stories come alive with action and good humor. I think that anyone would enjoy this read for the pure enjoyment of the chase on trails that are timely and familiar, untimely and unfamiliar, and just plain insane as a young man and his strange set of cohorts search for his famous father. I loved it and encourage others to pick it up and lose a weekend in Margaritaville or somewhere there abouts."Martha
Searching for Jimmy Buffett (kindle)
"This book made its rounds with the family during a recent vacation to Florida from Connecticut and was unanimously the best part of our long road trip. Being in Florida brought the book to life and kept us laughing each day. The characters are appealingly crazy and the story that is wrapped around Bean Buffett searching for his famous father through all kinds of unforeseen events keeps you pulling for his success. It was unpredictable and addictive, a page-turner for sure. I loved the characters. My favorite was the dog, Fruitcake, although Boner and Sister Moonbeam are quite a trip. I highly recommend this book to anyone."
Karen Stennisten
The Last Ghostrider (hardback)
"The Last Ghostrider brought back a flood of memories. I was there and this book got it just right. One of the best books I've read on the Vietnam war."
Roger B.
Searching for Jimmy Buffett (kindle edition)
"Just can't get enough of this book and couldn't put it down. I nearly got caught reading it at work and it was well worth the risk. This author is a real story teller that keeps you turning pages and chuckling the entire time. What a relief to find a truly entertaining work of literature. Can't wait for the next one."Saundra Estele

Now thanks to author Frank Mosco you can read one of the funniest books to be written in quite some time inspired by Buffett.

"I am hard put to find the words that say how much I enjoyed this book. I certainly would recommend it to anyone who loves tongue and cheek satire coupled with a great road trip adventure. Great characters, great book!"

"Saw your book in the Margaritaville Shop in Key West. Have to say it's the funniest book I have ever read. If you ever write a sequal please let me know. Thanks for a great read."

Searching for Jimmy Buffett (ePub iBook)
"Why did it take me so long to find this book? I can't remember the last time I had so much fun reading and even though I read it in ebook form I went and ordered it in hardback to add it to my private library. This author certainly has a way with a story and keeps you reading until the end. A fun and funny read!

"Wow, what a crazy book! I can't recommend it enough for any folks who like humor literature. Somebody should make it a movie."
