 Kya Clark, conhecida como a “menina do brejo”, mora em Barkley Cove, uma cidade costeira da Carolina do Norte. Uma moça sensata e inteligente que sobreviveu anos sozinha no pântano que ela chama de lar, tendo como amigas e a areia como professora. Anos depois, quando dois jovens da cidade ficam intrigados com sua beleza selvagem, Kya se permite experimentar uma nova vida -- até um deles aparecer morto. 
A princípio, o meu objetivo era, após terminar o audiobook ir ver o filme, mas passei um tempo pós leitura refletindo que esqueci.
Eu entrei com expectativas altas por ler resenha de pessoas que leram para o clube da Reese's book club, eu adorei a leitura e consigo entender porque fez tanto sucesso. 
 Como escrevi antes, fiz a leitura pelo audiobook no audible em português. A escrita da autora em conjunto da narração da Tatiane Pasquali foi boa e consegui me deixar presa na história. 
 A kya é uma pessoa com muito sofrimento na sua história, já começamos a leitura sobre seu pai alcoólatra e violento e a mãe que vai embora abandonado Kya, antes do resto dos familiares fazerem o mesmo, deixando a garota sendo uma pré-adolescente sozinha e não aprender a interagir com as pessoas, e somente às vezes tendo alguém lhe sendo gentil e a ajudando. 
 O cenário do livro e o pântano de Kya e a cidade ao lado, quando ela contribuiu o mundo do livro a autora teve o detalhamento nas personagens secundários e principalmente em comparar a segurança que a personagem sentia com os animais e natureza em relação ao opressivo cenário do preconceito das pessoas. 
 Espero que minha resenha faça alguém sentir vontade de ler, foi uma boa experiência para mim e adorei o desenvolvimento que valeu a pena a leitura e um final que me deixou surpresa, mas fez sentido.

The best part of the story is hearing about Kya's collection of specimens from the marsh.  I also appreciated that the book's ending was far more surprising than the movie depicted.

I love the marsh as a setting and almost as a character. It provided rich descriptions and a useful plot tool. The dialogue didn’t always do it for me, but I do love Kya the girl-boss she is 🌾

Probably one of the best books I’ve ever read. I cried to many times to count. I read it months ago and still think about it on a daily basis. It was heartbreaking and emotional. Overall I recommend and would kill to read it for the first time again
