I absolutley LOVED this book!!! Kelsey shows a sense of bravery and courage in this book and over time she develops a love for Ren the white tiger. Also, I love that she is not afraid to say no to the one she loves. When I was debating whether to read it or not a bunch of reviews told me it was a rip off of Twilight. That is totally NOT the case. This is at least five times as great as Twilight! Colleen Houck has definatly created a masterpiece! READ THIS BOOK!!!

UPDATE October 2017: I reread this novel and I spent a lot of the time cringing. It's most definitely not my favourite novel of all time anymore, as its cringy and I read it 6 years ago. It still has it's good moments, but I appreciate it more for the fact that it introduced me to the world of YA. I would rate this novel 3.75/5 stars, because of the cringyness but also the ships still keep me alive. Oh the woeful love triangles need to die.

Holy shit!! Holy shit!!! Holy shit!!!!

This book was and still is amazing. I picked this book up for a club at school and just thought the cover looked cool. But it's not just the cover that's cool!!
I picked up the booking expecting average things to happen and for me to get an average review out of it. But not this one. This book shocked me. It's now my all time fav series ever!!!
The fact that Kelsey is just an ordinary girl from Oregon that gets a job for her college tuition, and finds herself twisted in an Indian world of magic and fictional events is just amazing.
I loved the Indian culture, though I'm not sure that most of it is even true. Is Durga a real person from Indian culture?
I also really loved how Kelsey can be so childish in thinking that she's not good. Enough for Ren. And how they argue and still have a good time. (Loved the sarcastic remarks via Kelsey).
Though everything amazing about it, the only flaw for this book is that there's the typical cheesy love triangle that seems to be in every romance book.
Who's she gonna pick? Ren? Or Kishan?
Aside from cheesy love triangles, romance doesn't seem to be the main objective of this book. It's about trust. And living your life to the fullest. Taking risks even though you have no idea where it's going to take you.

The whole series was incredible. My favorite books, and series ever. The plot line was well written, well thought out, but had total surprises at every turn! I haven't read the final book, but I am so glad I discovered the series! I recommend to everyone who asks; if you like a romance, action, and an all around book that keeps you on your toes and guessing all the time, this wonderful book/series is worth reading. I love Colleen Houck, such an incredible writer. Forget Twilight, I want to see Tigers Curse!

Dlouho jsem uvažovala mezi pěti a třemi hvězdičkami. Začátek bomba, pět hvězdiček, ale posledních pár kapitol mě Kelsey tak vytáčela, že jsem to snížila na tři. Na ukončení celé knihy (a tedy úplně poslední kapitoly) jsem se rozhodla pro čtyři, protože si to Kelsey aspoň trošičku vylepšila. Jinak super knížka :)

What a disappointing ending. I dont know if I'll be continuing this series. Maybe one more to see if they get better.

  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated
