I struggles with the first few chapters until I could read and decipher the slang, but this a wonderful story. What a life the marsh girl lived, from an abandoned child to a recognized author, writing and painting the life in the marsh. I felt the town folk would never had accepted her had it not been for the trial. Although, I was wrong with my thinking Tate killed Chase. The greatest thing was Kya getting released to go back to her marsh. This books ends with love and death.

Rating of 3.5. I like the book, especially the way Owens depicts nature as its own "character" and how she shows the effects of human isolation. However, I could put down the book without hesitation and wasn't really shocked or touched by the ending.
This is a real tear jerker, seems to be quite polarising with reviewers but I loved it
