tl;dr: Delia Owens is a racist and together with her former husband terrorized Botswana and Zambia in the 1980s. The book is not even remotely good, and you can have my copy if you come dig it out of the recycling bin.
It’s been a long time since I’ve just completely given up on a book. 133 pages into this shitty novel, and I’m over it. For those who haven’t hear the mega hype about it... There’s a murder in a small town in 1969. Jump back to nearly 20 years earlier—a girl, Kya, is abandoned in her home in a North Carolina marsh in the 1950s. She basically raises herself.
Hmm, geez, do you think she had something to do with the murder?
