  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.5

A nice cross between a murder mystery and a coming of age story. The flashbacks/flashforwards were really well done (not confusing at all!) and the depictions of marsh natural life were excellent. Kya’s actions and motives were fascinating. The only reason I’m not giving a full five stars was because I didn’t love the ending. Some (very minor) sexual and violent content. 4.5 stars
