Who is the narrator, can she or he read minds, and, more importantly, can we trust her or him?
First Person (Central Narrator)—Multiple Perspectives
In a bit of a twist on classic first-person narration, instead of hanging out with one character throughout Tears of a Tiger, we hear from most of the main characters at some point. Andy, Gerald, B.J., Keisha, Rhonda, Tyrone, and Monty all voice a chapter or two, which means we really get to know what's going down in Hazelwood High instead of only hearing the story from Andy's perspective. Which is good, because Andy isn't seeing things quite right—plus, he'd be a major bummer to spend an entire book with. So go team.
