"Fantastic storytelling! Touching, suspenseful--everything we want it to be. I loved the love stories that crisscrossed. It's so tender, but also tense. Just like all love stories."

--Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat Pray Love, City of Girls, and All the Way to the River.

"Gripped me from the first page. Rarely have I read a novel with such an exquisite sense of place. Bell Tern is a wonderful character, but I believed the story because I could see, hear, and smell the gorgeous valley where this narrative takes place. American Tiger will stay with me."

--Ann Napolitano, New York Times bestselling author of Oprah Book Club pick, Hello Beautiful.

"A truly moving and beautiful novel about a girl and a tiger and what it means to be wild."

--Bonnie Tsui, author of Why We Swim and On Muscle.
