patch_xcx 's review for:

Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

2.5

---

didn't like it as much as i hoped for. reading it became more of a chore, especially at the start. it took me a long while to get into the story, and i wasn't really that attached to the characters. i really enjoyed the courtroom scenes though, especially the ones leading up to the verdict. but overall the book was just okay.
