Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens
medium-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? Plot
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
2.0
I think I let people hype it up too much for me, so my expectations were really high… this was a really mediocre read with some tropes & racist depictions i find…done poorly & was mostly unnecessary. (i know theyre trying to provide a “realistic 1960s setting” but it was poorly done.)
Overall, I was a bit disappointed
