Summer books

Summertime and the living is easy. Of course, that’s not how it always is, but that’s how it should be. In this ever-busy check-your-email-every-other-second-of-the-day world, settling down might be a challenge. Our suggestion: Grab a good book. Or two. Or three. Or a dozen. Just relax. With the latest installment of Honolulu Weekly’s summer book issue, we offer up a quick selection of the best fiction and non-fiction–some from local authors, some simply based in the Islands. From the heroics of the men in the 442nd and 100th in World War II to the ghosts in Lois-Ann Yamanaka’s house to Windward Community College’s Common Book program, your battle to take it easy just got, well, easier.
