Moon Tiger by Penelope Lively

4.0

---

This took me a while to get into probably because I was suffering from a book hangover from The Stranger's Child by Alan Hollinghurst. But maybe a quarter of the way through I was hooked. A sad tale of lost love and how even our closest relatives don't know what we're really like. Claudia, the main narrator, and protagonist is difficult to like, but that did make it interesting, and make me question my own responses to the book.
