Reading Response "Tiger's Curse"

   In the book Tiger's Curse by Colleen Houck it captivated me just a few chapters in. I really like how this book ties in Hindu culture into modern romance. But I couldn't help but notice that the main character Kelsey is a bit like Bella from Twilight, someone that I sometimes find very annoying.    Kelsey is trying to find who she truly is after her parents died. She works at a circus where she meets Ren, an 300-year old prince from ancient India who is put under a curse, forced to take the body of a tiger. When Kelsey frees him, they both embark on a mythical journey to free him of his burden. The two can't help but fall in love with each other, forming an unbreakable bond that no matter what can never be cut.
  Bella also has an unbreakable tie with Edward, they just love each other to all ends. These couples' undying love for each other is both a blessing and a burden. Sometimes it helps them and sometimes it just blocks them. Love can be a great burden to all, especially with a boyfriend that is sometimes that was thought that can only come myths. Sometimes the girls hold them back and sometimes just don't know when to simply let go.
  Love is something that should not be treated lightly. You should treat it frailly and nuture it with care, tend to it with care to make sure nothing goes out of place. Love is something wonderful.
