REMINDER - Hawai'i is not to be visited by tourists as it is so damaging to local communities. The books listed here are not intended to promote said travel.
Sharks in the Time of Saviors by Kawai Strong Washburn Every Drop is a Man's Nightmare by Megan Kamalei Kakimoto Aloha Betrayed by Noenoe K. Silva -harvested from a reddit post bc I was looking for fiction, i swear i saw an ig reel of a native hawaiian fantasy author talking abt her book a couple wks ago but now of course I cant remember the acct or name/title. someday i will find her again...

Thank you for all of these great Hawaiian authors! ah yes... the elusive reel that will never be seen again...!
