I absolutely loved The Tyrant's Daughter. This haunting narrative sticks with you; it should be required reading in all MS and HS history classes. She is the daughter of an assassinated leader, from a non stated country. Her family fled there and are now in the US. She is trying to fit in, to figure out if her father was good or the dictator/tyrant the news says he is. Loads to discuss, ponder, question, sympathize with and worry about.
Very well written from a young girl's perspective. The other characters were well drawn out as well. All too believable. Kudos to J.C Carleson.
