The Tiger Came to the Mountains by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
3.0

 This was just okay. I more or less liked the idea of this elderly woman telling a tale from her childhood in this mythical sort of vibe and I enjoyed the clear adoration she held for her brother in their youth, but aside from the commentary on growing up during wartimes, the story as a whole felt entirely unmemorable—one of those tales I probably won't think about again after I finish typing this review.
