My friends read this about a year ago and loved it. They couldn't stop talking about it! I haven't read it, but I plan to in the future, and I also want to watch the film version someday. Anyway, this is a great review and I'm excited to see what you read next. :)untitled36https://www.blogger.com/profile/10550414144705594055noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-39617845565424638212015-05-28T15:55:30.608-04:002015-05-28T15:55:30.608-04:00I loved how I could learn about a different cultur...I loved how I could learn about a different culture in this book! paperbackprincesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07446601964387517150noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-4246773748616341652015-05-28T08:50:14.054-04:002015-05-28T08:50:14.054-04:00I really want to read this book!

I love that the character is Indian, - being a Sri Lankan myself, that culture is the closest I can relate to when it comes to fiction- and I always love it when my books have a steady world building and descriptive writing.<br />Wonderful review Emily!Mishma @ Chasing Faerytaleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15253047767404480728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-29275492105576982872015-05-27T07:40:37.031-04:002015-05-27T07:40:37.031-04:00I would really recommend it, as it such a unique b...I would really recommend it, as it such a unique book!

There's a copy in my school's library so maybe I'll take it for grabs :) I haven't completely watched the movie yet, but only little parts that I remember, such as the scene where the man and the Tiger were floating along the sea. You're right, it IS emotionally-driven, but I'm only saying that because I saw parts of the movie. Maybe the book will be different :) I'd love to give it a try someday! <br /><br />Thanks for the review Emily! <br /><br />Jillian @ <a href="http://jilliansbooks.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow"> Jillian's Books </a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1717251772632628978.post-23683047423357580492015-05-26T18:06:50.268-04:002015-05-26T18:06:50.268-04:00The movie and the book were both so beautiful, hop...The movie and the book were both so beautiful, hope you get to read it soon!

I haven't read the book yet (shame, shame *hides*), but I plan to as soon as I can get my hands on it. I love books that are light reads but also make you think. I recently read The Walls Around Us by Nova Ren Suma which I think is another great example of books that weren't exactly hard to understand yet challenged everyday thinking. I'm looking forward to it more now that diversity was included, I always enjoy seeing that in books.<br /><br />Claire @ <a href="http://www.ccovertocover.blogspot.com" rel="nofollow">Cover to Cover</a>Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
