59. Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens

This week Chelsea and Taryn are discussing the worldwide best-selling novel Where the Crawdads Sing by Delia Owens. This book is being brought to the big screen so our hosts wanted to review it before it comes out.  This was a reread for Taryn and the first read for Chelsea, and they both have mixed feelings. This book is not a happy read, but it brings up important topics to discuss. What did you think of the book?
