mbrosi 's review for:
Unfamiliar Fishes
by Sarah Vowell
I wanted to like this book more than I did. The fact that I abandoned it more than once and finally finished it nearly two years later shows that. Vowell's attention to detail is admirable, but the lack of chapters or page breaks really made it hard to set down and pick back up. Also she fluctuates between her modern day researching storytelling and the history. So I often wondered what year are we in now? Yes I'm glad to have read this because Hawaiian history is sad and fascinating. But I wouldn't recommend it this one.
