I'm gradually adding books I've read in 2021 to give a true reflection of the books I've read since keeping records.  In January 2021, I kick-started my reading journey having put reading on the  back burner whilst bringing up the children only reading when on holiday, having previously being an avid reader.  A very beautifully written book with the celebration of nature and the marshes becoming a character in its own right. A coming of age story, of poverty, and the discrimination of the Marsh girl. Haunting but so so beautiful. A wonderful read
