Fun to look at the pictures

The story of Hawaii’s colonization and land laws as told by a former writer for the Washington Post, written as she researched her own family history on Maui and her extended family’s responsibility for land parcel deeded to their long-ago Hawaiian ancestor. Includes photos, glossary of common Hawaiian words, and an index. Essential reading for every part Hawaiian person.

I live it because you can get a different point of view

Had to DNF this one halfway through after reading it on my bus ride every morning and falling asleep every single time. I can only describe this book as exhausting. Desperately in need of an editor that could rip the heart out of this book and cut out all the fatty tissue. Has an all-timer bad line in it: "I'm seventy-five and falling apart. My body, not my womanhood, nor my Japanese Americanness." With a line that bad you know this author is not a woman nor is he Japanese-American because genuinely what does that even mean?

I gobbled up this book in a day! This fun romance is just the type of escapist chick lit I crave. The man is stern, handsome and ridiculously wealthy. The woman is a maid in the service industry who has her head on straight. The two share banter, physical chemistry and a believable emotional connection. Author Lynn Painter does such a great job with this genre. The audiobook narration was great!

Sometimes "webcomic" can be an inadvertent insult--NOT IN THIS CASE! SUPER MEGA FUN!

Really interesting read!!

It’s a good book

I really like this book because it has gems in it and I like Amaya. I think someone else would like it because it has a girl who really likes her friends and they go into a place called gem world. I really like how at the end she gets her brother back and she gets her parents back with her brother.

edge of my seat even though this is my third time through the series. Aelin is absolutely iconic
