“Jin is an admirable character and an apt storyteller, and the arc
of her life provides a fascinating look at an often untold and
decidedly unglamorous side of 20th-century Hawaii. It’s intriguing
and visceral... [a] poignant, colorful story."
–Kirkus Review
“Honolulu is everything a good historical fiction novel should be.
It entertains and educates, while immersing the reader in the time
and place conveyed. It is sure to find its way to many hearts and
bookshelves.”
