My Rating: 4.8
It is in the 1960's in North Carolina with two stories unfolding. One is of Kya Clark, the Marsh Girl, who has had her family abandon her and she is forced to raise herself. The other is of the discover of the dead body if Chase Andrews.
This is a quiet and beautiful read. It captures the marsh, the creatures and living life alone. The beauty of the gulls, the sand and discovering the smallest of creatures. It unfolds in such beauty that you don't want it to end...or for man to encroach on that peace. It is a coming of age story that captures live in the Carolinas. Loved it!

So glad you enjoyed this one. It is one of top reads of the year so far.
