Synopsis from GoodReads:
Nick and her cousin, Helena, have grown up sharing sultry summer heat, sunbleached boat docks, and midnight gin parties on Martha's Vineyard in a glorious old family estate known as Tiger House. In the days following the end of the Second World War, the world seems to offer itself up, and the two women are on the cusp of their 'real lives': Helena is off to Hollywood and a new marriage, while Nick is heading for a reunion with her own young husband, Hughes, about to return from the war.
Soon the gilt begins to crack. Helena's husband is not the man he seemed to be, and Hughes has returned from the war distant, his inner light curtained over. On the brink of the 1960s, . . .a brutal murder, the intrusion of violence causes everything to unravel. The members of the family spin out of their prescribed orbits, secrets come to light, and nothing about their lives will ever be the same. . . . read more

My favorite genre would probably be anything with a paranormal twist.
I love nonfiction and literary fiction.
I am a pretty eclectic reader and enjoy most. Right now I am really enjoying books with a paranormal twist and a post apocalyptic theme, although I love a good cozy mystery, women's literature, and detective/mysteries. Thank you for the invite to the fun. I have signed up to follow and am looking forward to the journey.
Oh wow, just one?
I love Jane Austen sequels/prequels (should have its own genre), mysteries and thrillers, chick lit and true crime.
Thanks so much for the opportunity to win!

Sounds like a great book. Thanks for letting us know about it. :)

Oh, just one? Today it is Fantasy. Yesterday it was Romantic Historical Fiction. By tomorrow it will be Urban Fantasy.
In other words the genre of the book I'm devouring that day!

Tigers in Red Weather sounds really intriguing, and, as a bonus, it's set during a time I lived through, so I'd like to read it.

Looks like an interesting book. Enter me.

Anything YA is good for me! Especially dystopians, contemporaries (with not too much fluff!) and paranormals! Thanks so much for the giveaway!
Ok, I entered, I hate to see a lady beg.
I'll give you my penny...maybe even two cents. :) My favorite genre would have to be historical fiction.
I like a wide variety of genres as long as a book is well written. I am not too keen on Horror or Erotica. I love Sci Fi and that often gets blended with Horror. So glad you have many participants! :)
Nonfiction, literary fiction :)
You want me to pick only one? O_o No can do! I've got too many different books on my "I have to have these books if I'm ever stranded on a tropical island" list--that's why I need a solar panel for my iPad. ;)
Interesting sounding book.
I mostly read YA and middle grade books. Dystopian YA is probably my favorite, if I had to choose!
Mystery.
Thanks for making this open to Canadians.

My favorite genre is probably horror, but I read just about everything.
I've heard great things about this book!
I've recently discovered how big the difference is between text books and nonfiction.
I've recently discovered how big the difference is between text books and nonfiction.
My favorite genre is historical fiction. I love when a good author has done their homework and I can learn a lot of historical facts in an interesting way.
though I read and write a lot of sci-fi I can't say I have a favorite genre. What's more important to me is a good story with good characters.
Definitely interested since it comes off as literary suspense. Count me in! You've got my contact info on FB and elsewhere.
Sounds like an interesting one! I love lots of different books, but I've been on a big Agatha Christie kick lately.
I love historical fiction, like Jane Austen, Charles Dickens, Charlotte Bronte, etc. ...Also fantasy.
I'm always up for a free book!
I enjoy Lisa's Sees book the best and mystery.
I don't think I have a favorite, I love a good book, no matter what the genre. I suppose I gravitate towards historical fiction and sci-fi/magic. Does that explain my split personality?
Like so many commenters I find it difficult to pick a single genre. Historical, sci-fi, contemporary, classic, all of the above. If it's well-written, I'm there.
Of course I forgot the contact information. Color me: carlscott(at)prodigy(dot)net(dot)mx
I like many kinds of books....best seller fiction, historical novels, biographies, etc. If it's a "good" book I'll read it...no matter what genre. :) Thanks for the chance to win Tigers in Red Weather....really want to read this one. :)

I love the classsics and literary fiction as well as some contemporary fiction. I'm not a fan of the paranormal or vampires, werewolves etc.
This book sounds terrific. Thank you for hosting a giveaway.
