 * Description

Where the Crawdads Sing - NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE—The #1 New York Times
bestselling worldwide sensation with more than 18 million copies sold, hailed by
The New York Times Book Review as “a painfully beautiful first novel that is at
once a murder mystery, a coming-of-age narrative and a celebration of nature.”

For years, rumors of the “Marsh Girl” have haunted Barkley Cove, a quiet town on
the North Carolina coast. So in late 1969, when handsome Chase Andrews is found
dead, the locals immediately suspect Kya Clark, the so-called Marsh Girl. But
Kya is not what they say. Sensitive and intelligent, she has survived for years
alone in the marsh that she calls home, finding friends in the gulls and lessons
in the sand. Then the time comes when she yearns to be touched and loved. When
two young men from town become intrigued by her wild beauty, Kya opens herself
to a new life—until the unthinkable happens.

Where the Crawdads Sing is at once an exquisite ode to the natural world, a
heartbreaking coming-of-age story, and a surprising tale of possible murder.
Owens reminds us that we are forever shaped by the children we once were, and
that we are all subject to the beautiful and violent secrets that nature keeps.

WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING REVIEWS

DILLA THE BOOKWORM

> This was such a great read!! So much so, that I have purchased the hardcopy
> just to add it to our library to read all over again. The rollercoaster of
> emotions it brought ok mixed with the inability to put it down, just WOW!

YLBNOR

> Powerful novel of survival! The often silent experience between Nature and
> Humanity in cultures around the world, silently hidden from most of us and
> revealed in a never to be forgotten novel, Where The Crawdads Sing!

MD333333333333333

> Best book I’ve read in a long time that made me cry tears of sadness AND joy.
> Very well written.

TOBACCOCAT17

> I got this book as a gift, and although not a genre or book I would pick out
> myself. Owens quickly appealed to the feminist in me with her story about a
> young poor girl in southern states enduring abandonment, poverty and rejection
> and social isolation and yet is able to thrive and navigate ugliness in her
> life with grace and tenacity for surviving in her mash. With each roadblock
> Kya encounters, the more the reader becomes ensnared by novel. Kya’s
> determination and perseverance in the face of social and emotional trauma is
> inspiring but do not read if you are afraid to cry or fear becoming
> emotionally invested in the narrative.

DRJBBELT

> Captivatingly woven tale of loss, loneliness and nature’s solace and guidance.

LESLEY AND DAYNE

> This author unleashed all the feelings I needed to feel

JOCIE51

SHELLAS-2345

> One of the best books I’ve ever read

MAYOLOT

> Such an incredibly told tale … beautifully written and so compelling I
> couldn’t put it down. I’m sad I finished this book. It will be difficult to
> get Kya out of my mind. I think I’ll keep her with me for awhile. I loved this
> book … I devoured it.

PIZAZZI

> Extremely well written with the push and pull of the power of words magically
> sewn into each paragraph. The best magnetic pull to a book that I have had in
> quite some time….. I did not want this book to end……thank you Delia Owens.
> Carol Reichert Southampton Beach town, Canada

TADBINZ

> Amazing!!!

BISONGIRLJEN

> So good!

IDRISSASHMOUL

> Brilliant book. Truly enjoyed it

SMCGRAVILL

> One of the best, if not the BEST story I have ever read. Your senses will be
> heightened as you see, smell, feel, hear and learn of the inhabitance of the
> coastal waters of North Carolina in 1969, from the perspective of a female
> raised lonely and alone from the tender age of 6. The author’s poetically
> woven words will captivate you. You will empathize with the one girl no one
> showed empathy for, other than Jumpin’, his wife Mabel, brother Jodie, and
> true love, Tate. Through love and betrayal The Marsh Girl goes from being the
> dirty monster everyone rejected to legend and loved by the locals of Barkley
> Cove. Nothing is ever too far away to be able to change and this book teaches
> that change and love sometimes come at a price but love and forgiveness and
> acceptance in the end are all that matter.

CHARBABY71

> Well written. Fell in love with so many of the characters. Was sad when it was
> done.

> actually in as you read it. Wholeheartedly recommend it.

BEEDSTER1

> I love the way this book was written. It felt like I was there. All the scents
> and colours came to life as if the main character was alive. A great read, I
> could not put it down!

XTCAT

> An incredible story about survival that, at times sways towards the
> incredulous. The pity, pride and love we feel for this little rag-a-muffin
> turns into reproachful worrying as she grows up. When Kya becomes a woman, the
> story takes a turn straight into a harlequin romance novel and then straight
> into an old fashioned whodunnit. It is, first and foremost a tale about
> prejudice, but not in the traditional sense of racial inequality. It is about
> abuse brought on by personal torment. It is about finding solace and beauty
> when you have nothing else. It is about finding your soul and keeping your
> sanity, in the written word.

CITYGIRL2_2

> Such a gripping story and keeps you reading all day long! Should be made into
> a movie:)

JCARDUCCI

> I LOVED this book! At first I felt like it wouldn’t be as good as some of the

> I have never been a reader but I decided I wanted to become one as I do really
> enjoy reading! I follow this girl on Instagram that claimed this book was one
> of her now favourites out of tons of books she’s already read so I decided
> this would be my first book to start my reading journey! I was not
> disappointed this book is absolutely amazing and only took me 6 days to read I
> could not put it down! I love Kya’s character and could not imagine having to
> live the life she did and be nearly as happy and successful as she became!
> This book is a love story, true crime, and nature loving book all in one and
> could not have been written any better I would recommend this book to anyone
> who has every though of reading it! 10/10 🥰
