Rendition Supposing Books Tea Cups & Tiger Claws
First comes the miracle and then comes the madness. The miracle is the birth of identical triplets, and the madness is all about money, of course. The year is 1916 and the newborn baby girls have become pint-size celebrities. Unfortunately, this small portion of fame soon leads to a much larger portion of greed, and the triplets are split up—parceled out to the highest bidders. Two of the girls go to live in a hilltop mansion. The third girl isn't so lucky. She ends up with a shady family that lives in an abandoned work camp. That’s how their lives begin: two on top, one on the bottom, and all three in the same small town. And when their worlds collide, as they must, the consequences are extreme."Tea Cups & Tiger Claws" spans fifty years and takes the reader from a shantytown to a gilded mansion, from dark desires to sacrificial love.

While the timeline was off towards the end of this book it gets all 5 stars because it had a unique story line. Triplet girls are born to a family that lives in a shack. One of the richest ladies in town tries to buy all three girls but ends up with only two. This is the beginning of the girls all taking very different paths in their lives. Follow along to see where these paths take them and their kids. It likely won't be where you expect.I read this for a book club and did not think I was going to like it. I was surprised that I did. The story was good, but I really enjoyed the author's style. It wasn't what I expected. I don't believe the title represents the book very well.
This story starts with a good premise and then expands it into a page-turning, can't put down tale. While I did manage to put the book down a few times, the closer I got to the end, the more difficult it became to put it down. I finally got up an hour early to finish the story. The last chapters were a roller-coaster ride.This book delivered far better than I anticipated. Thank you Mr Patrick, you know how to draw in a reader and tell a tale
Great potential, loved the beginning. Triplets separated, I wanted more of that story. It got weird and drawn out into a strange, fake twist. Almost felt like I read two different stories. It held my interest but I wanted something different.
What!?!What a rollicking read! It was fun, which is not what I'd expected. As a matter of fact, I was bracing for a total downer. I kept reading because of the underlying attitude of sarcasm, which I enjoyed. We'll...get ready for a bumpy ride!!
DecitefullnessBit of a while to get into, but could not put down took two hours to get into the very good ending, awful hatred the third triplet had for her siblings, but She got caught by her adopted son.
