   The descendants sounds like a really great book , I would really love to read it and then go see the movie starring George Clooney. Another great book from random house readers circle.

   Once I started reading The Descendants, I could not put this book down! The only distraction was George Clooney’s photo on the cover of my library copy; Matt King, I presume. Most likely, flashbacks will be utilized to capture Joanie, the comatose mother. All in all, this was not only a fascinating book about the land-rich descendants of Hawaiian royalty, but also a brutally honest exploration of an almost clueless father awakening to his past mistakes and future responsibilities to his conflicted daughters. Look forward to reading Kaui Hart Hemmings’ next novel!
