Back in February, I read a book by Bodie Thoene called Love Finds You in Lahaina, Hawaii. I really liked this book so much that I thought I'd better do a review on it. It was the first historical fiction book I had read in quite a while. This book is actually part of a Love Finds You collection written by many different authors. You can read about the books and see all of the titles here.
This book actually has 2 different stories going on at the same time. Sandi headed to Hawaii to interview an eyewitness to history for a 50 states History Project for UCLA's masters program. Her contact happens to be an older lady named Auntie Hannah who has quite a story to tell. The story takes place in 1890 amidst growing unrest in Hawaii. What Sandi finds in Hawaii is a story filled with intrigue, mystery and love that also helps her deal with battles that she is facing in her own life.
I loved the story and thought it was so well written. I love reading a fun story filled with actual history. Bodie Thoene is one of my favorite historical fiction writers. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who is looking for something fun to read.
**I checked out this book at my local library.
