I just got done reading the Tiger's Curse by Colleen Houck. I have to say that I loved the story! I have listed it as one of my current favorites next to Hunter's Game. It has adventure, romance, fantasy, and an alluring tale that captures the reader in just the first paragraph that gives the introduction to the curse. Though the progress for the romance between Kelsey and Ren was a little daunting, I understood the situation the author had put them both in, and understood why Kelsey tried to tear herself away from the one she loved. (However, I would have steeled Ren all to myself! Personally, the author described the exact type of guy I would go for in Ren in appearance and personality. :D)
There is some amount of text that is in Hindi and I would suggest a translator as most of those text are not explained in the book, if you really want to find out what those mean, but they are really unimportant compared to the main story. It was just a tad frustrating since I could only understand some of it myself since my parents speak Urdu (which is similar to Hindi).
All in all, the book made my laugh, sad, giggle from girlish embarrassment, and made me feel my own heartbreak for the characters as they went through their journey of danger and awkwardness at love. Though not exactly tear-jerking, it does leave the reader an intense feeling of wanting more after just one volume. I can NOT wait for the next book, since I only read this book within 2 1/2 days! I give this book 4 1/2 stars!
