The Descendants by Kaui Hart Hemmings

3.0

I read The Descendants on my flight to Maui. I had seen the movie several years ago, so I thought I would check out the book. It's poorly written, maybe that excuse is used as it comes from the narrator Matt King's perspective. I had to stop myself in the middle of it, and reflect on the immaturity of the sentence structure.

It's a quick read, and some of the character details are charming. Even though the written quality is poor, I found the novel entertaining - a perfect pool read or quick flight read.
