Tigers, Not Daughters by Samantha Mabry

2.0

Tigers, Not Daughters is a beautiful story about strength in the face of adversity. These sisters face down issues like loss, grief, and abuse while growing together as a unit. Adding in a bit of magical realism, discussion of religion, and a manhunt for a hyena only adds character to the novel. The writing was beautiful, but I had some issues with the pacing that lessened the immersion for me.
