4.0

A very emotional and powerful novel that follows Leah through her childhood and the challenges she faces. Meagan Church did such a spectacular job writing this that I had visceral reactions while reading. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in historical fiction with strong female protagonists as well as fans of Where the Crawdads Sing.
