Welcome to this week’s Book End, highlighting the weekend’s literary and library events here in Hawaii. It’s been a crazy month for Misty and I, but now that a lot of the big events we’ve to are out of the way, we can finally say we will concentrate on finishing up a few things and […]

Well we’re wrapping up our Rec-Fest and First Book-Oahu will be here until 4:00 pm… but remember, you can say “First Book” at any Barnes & Noble Hawaii ANYTIME this weekend to help them raise money to buy new books for children in the community. The last book review is one of my own picks. […]

The big news for us is that next week, Hawaii Book Blog will be on vacation (and as a result, hiatus) in the Land of the Rising Sun! Misty and I will both be in Tokyo for our very first trip to Japan. We’re both very excited! In the meantime, this means there will not […]
