My thoughts are all over the place. Bear with me.
After the epicness of The Bronze Horseman I was expecting something similar. This was not it. Was there emotion? Yeah. Heck, I could pinpoint the “Depths of Despair” moment. Will I read the next books? Most definitely. But I have so many mixed feelings right now, it’s hard to put into words.
The Tiger Catcher seemed light hearted and almost a rom com. If you want this epic story that’ll leave you breathless, then you’ll definitely be surprised.
The main heroine, Josephine, was snarky and at times I wanted to shake her. She was selfish and not very appealing at times, but I know there’s more to her than what we saw. She has two more books to turn it around and I believe she will. The hero, Julian, did all the right things and yet his heart was still broken. He is the main reason I’m here. I need him to find his HEA like I need air to breathe.
It was a good story, just not what I was expecting. A magical feel is interwoven throughout this. This is not a straightforward romance. Theirs was a romance through space and time… Once I stopped comparing it to TBH, I realized it still was still a very good story, if not a bit different. I’ve always liked when authors took a chance on something new, so I’m glad I took a chance on this as well.
I look forward to the next one.
