[Wow · Rating 2 out of 5]

This middle -grade novel has a vibe similar to the Secret Garden by Frances H. Burnett.

The dual main characters were relatable and the writing was good it felt sweet and soft .

Though the main characters voices sounded a bit younger than they really were ...

Overall a solid story

Tiger Moth is narrated by Alice and Zack, both have distinct voices. We first meet Alice who tells us about how her parents picked her shortly after she was born and about Culver Manor (I loved the description of the house, could picture it perfectly).

I liked Alice and thought that Suzi Moore succeeded in making the reader feel very sympathetic towards her. It took me a little longer to warm to Zack, I think a lot of that has to do with his relationship with his mother.

Alice and Zack’s friendship is key to the book, it’s not perfect which makes it more believable. Personally I felt that the parents took too long to explain the secret surrounding the beach but that’s really the only thing that stuck out.

Tiger Moth was an enjoyable read. Suzi Moore described Alice’s home so beautifully I wanted to be there.
