I found this book drew me in, especially the descriptions of the saltmarsh. The weather was a character in it's own right. I liked the fact that the characters are all complicated people and not just one note. I look forward to getting to know the main characters better in the rest of the series. There was quite a lot of time spent going on about how fat Ruth was - at a whooping 12.5 st (rolls eyes), please, enough with the body shaming.
