Tiger Eyes

by Judy Blume

Davey's father has been murdered -- and the aftermath is causing her family to fall apart. Her heartbroken mum plucks them up and takes them to stay with her prim and proper aunt in Los Alamos. Davey escapes the claustrophobic house by cycling up to the canyon, where she meets a mysterious older boy called Wolf: intense, brooding, and also about to lose someone close to him. But falling for someone won't make her dad come back - there are no easy answers when you need to stick your broken family back together ...

Reviews

[MurderByDeath]

I've just re-read this book after 30 years and I'm surprised at how well it's stood the test of time. Still an excellent read that covers grief, and guilt while also touching on racism, teen-drinking and pressure to conform. Judy Blume still rocks.
