Wow. This book was incredible, and what a way to start 2022!

I have a thing for books where the characters share thoughts that society deems inappropriate. Similarly to The Push, this novel takes these incredibly raw characters and emotions and puts them in vulnerable, high pressure situations. What is created is so powerful. 

If you want a breakdown of what I love about this novel, checkout my review of The Push, as I love this story for all the same reasons.

This is what Where the Crawdads Sing wishes it could be.
