Synopsis: Dubbed the “Marsh Girl,” Kya has always been an outsider in her own town. This didn’t bother her much, until one day she is blamed for murder.
Review: Although the backstory is a bit much, I feel like this aspect didn’t have much of an effect on me. Besides the beginning, the pacing was fine and fitting for the story. This book had a lot of imagery, which really helped with this particular story. Besides the obvious murder mystery, this also explored themes such as coming-of-age, loss, independence, and love.
Read this... if you like murder mysteries and/or historical fiction!
This is on my TBR. I think I may read it soon.
