Shark Dialogues by Kiana Davenport

2.0

I had really wanted to like this book more than I did. I enjoyed the historical elements of the novel, learning about the details of Hawai'i's colonisation and resistance to it. But I wanted more of that built into the narrative. Unfortunately, so many of the characters were either not engaging or repugnant (the one who kills whales and resorts to cannibalism). I think the chapters were not as cohesive as they could have been and the same can be said for the characters' lives.
