Fever: A Novel Set in Hana, Maui

Rating:
Summary: Wonderfully imaginative, endlessly entertaining.
Review: FEVER transports you to an ethereal version of rain-forest reality, where nothing known is really as it seems. Wildly and richly imaginative, yet based on actual experiences, Ms. Dean's account delivers endless, enthralling entertainment. From mystic mind-melders to uptight mellonballers, from pagan pundits to plantation papaya men, this book offers a whimsical island ride you won't soon forget. Buy it!

Summary: An utter waste of paper stock
Review: It's not easy to earn a living In Hana, Maui. The author must have been thinking: "I know, let's write a book to suck in the tourists!" The large print should have been a 'give-away', but I was on vacation and in search of 'local charm'. I will read anything cover to cover: a bad book being superior to no book at all. The drivel in this book tested the limits of my philosophy.

Summary: Caution: You will burst out laughing
Review: Sit down, let go and enjoy. Fever hits Hana life right on the head. It answers the questions many vistors ask me: What brought you to Hana? What is there to do? What's it like to live in Hana? The characters are zaney, witty, and frightfully real. I thouhgt I was Dic. Now that Fever has caught the Hana experince so well I do not have to write about my similar experiences. As a fellow transplant from the mainland, when asked the questions above I simply and delighfully say, "Get Nicoles book 'Fever' at Hasegawas or Amazon.com. All your questions will be answered." A fun quick read, especially when read at Red Sand beach. Thanks Nicole for the many laughs. A must read before, during or after a trip to the "last Hawaiian village" Hana.
