Tiger Lily was an exhilarating read of a young peasant girl, an outsider, struggling against her own feelings for her mother and the forbidden religion that she has been taught in a historical Japanese setting where obedience is prized over everything. When she gets drawn into the political intrigues of the court, she has to accept who she is in order to make a difference. This book transports the reader to another world and made me regret that it was time to come back.
