I LOVE the title for THE TIGER AT... â€� Swati Teerdhala Q&A

Hafsah Faizal asked Swati Teerdhala:

I LOVE the title for THE TIGER AT MIDNIGHT! Was it always the title?

Swati Teerdhala No, it actually wasn't! It's based off a line in the book that only came to life in later drafts. My agent suggested that it could be a great title and I resisted a bit but as always, she was right! It actually is the perfect title and encompasses what the story is about...but I can't say more than that. :)

I am so excited for this book! And that cover! swoons Based on the description, I have to ask... Can readers look forward to a taste of enemies-to-lovers? If so (or if not!) can you talk about what inspired you to write about two characters on opposite sides of something bigger than themselves?

Mayura asked Swati Teerdhala:

I love how your book ties so much of your own upbringing and the stories you were raised with as a South Asian woman. What are some other YA/Fantasy books that you would recommend for South Asian women hoping to see themselves represented in this genre?

Hi! I'm and Indian, and a teen author, and I've written a book, Nirvana, and I was hoping to publish it. Any suggestions for teen authors, right now?
