Status Updates From Mai Tais and Murder (Gabe M...

I was right! Go me!

"I bet you’ve never had laulau, huh?”

Okay. I need Gabe's reaction to poi now. I love how much this book is about local Hawaii and not all the tourist traps we normally see portrayed.

I love Gabe on okolehalo! OMG that stuff is no joke!

If I didn't love the fact that the author nails living in Hawaii - yes EVERYONE wants Loco Moco so much I even make a Vegan version of it - Gabe and Maka right now with their second meet cute... kills me. This is going to be so good.

I'm dying! LOL

“Yo, you got choke boxes, braddah.” It sounded like it was meant to be an explanation, but if it was, I didn’t understand it. I’d been in Hawaii for two weeks, and I had not come close to catching on to the local pidgin.

Long has nailed the pidgin in one comment! It took me forever to catch on when I lived on Maui!

This would be a complete DNF, if I didn't know it was a cozy mystery. Whatever that means.

Gabe is so adorably grumpy.

Okay picked it up again and started getting into it. Then he does another dumb thing lol

I didn't realize it would be this farcical or ridiculous. Not sure I'm in the mood for this one.
