This is easily a 5 stars book!
I have started reading it on October and tried to put it off every now and then because of how emotional wreck I was while reading it 😭
Where the Crawdad Sings is about loneliness, abandonment, trying to shape yourself in this bitter world, finding some sense of belonging in nature, like how our protagonist Kya did.
Catherine Danielle Clark, who was nicknamed Kya by her family when she was a little girl. She has acquired a lot of names, like the marsh girl. As she lived in an excluded shack with her family, before everyone abandoned her and left in an attempt to seek a better life, a clean slate—away from their drunk, abusive father. She was six years old when everyone left her to fend for herself.
In this book, you’ll travel to the marsh and live through Kya’s heartbreaks, loneliness, betrayel, wrongful incarceration, and many more.
Oh my lovely Kya—this beautiful innocent child, who shaped and built her life from scratch without the need of anybody else in a very young age—I will cherish her in my heart ❤️
