You'll Be Swell

YOU'LL BE SWELL is the hilarious first novel by comedian Jim David. Lucy Dixon is a beautiful, smart, chubby and accident prone actress who dreamed of life as an MGM musical, but lately her once successful career has hit the wall "faster than a crash test dummy on crystal meth." Taking a much needed break she goes on a disastrous Caribbean cruise, setting off an unexpected chain of events that changes her life forever. Along the way she is stalked by a handsome Texan, charmed by a dashing Moroccan, harassed by a Jamaican, propositioned by a hit man and held at gunpoint while dressed as a pink gorilla - all in the name of making it. YOU'LL BE SWELL is an uproarious and heartwarming trip through the life of a phenomenal talent who withstands the horrific struggles of showbiz while trying to maintain sanity and self-esteem, easier said than done. "Jim David is a blue state guy from a red state. Now that's funny." - JOY BEHAR "Of all the things you will take to bed, Jim David will be the most fun and the battery won't run down at a crucial moment." - BRUCE VILANCH "I love Jim David's comedy so it's no surprise that his book is laugh-out-loud funny. But it's also touching, wise and says a lot about the realities that collide with chasing your dreams. I want an encore." - DENNIS HENSLEY, author of "Misadventures in the (213)"
