Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
3.0

So much hype, and it's... fine.

Kya is a great character, though she requires a healthy suspension of disbelief at age 6. Tate is a good character, as is his dad. They seem a little "born in the wrong era," but it's probably what made them likeable.

I like that we didn't find out what happened to some of her family members, that seemed like a realistic outcome. Is this a spoiler? The book has been out for a long time now, so maybe not a spoiler.

I'll mark this bit, though.
I'm sure glad someone took out Chase, though I wish it hadn't been Kya. I was honestly hoping his wife grew a pair, or even Tate. I'm glad it wasn't Jumpin', that would have been pretty poor. I wasn't surprised that it turned out to be Kya, either.
