Koi For Dummies

by: R. D. Bartlett, Patricia Bartlett
I usually like the Dummies books but this one wasn't what I was looking for. There was too much focus on things like pond design and building and not enough on caring for koi, which is what I needed. Fortunately, Amazon has a terrific return policy so they rate 5 stars.

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole's Facing Future

by: Dan Kois
I so enjoyed this book. I knew little about Israel Kamakawiwo'ole, or Hawaii for that matter, before I started reading, and I've learned so much since. The author does more than merely tell a story about how Iz accomplished all that he did, but also considers why Iz played, who profited from his success, and who was left behind, giving various perspectives on a subject obviously controversial and sensitive to Hawaiians.

It's a fascinating read, even for those who aren't already fans of Iz or his work.
