Where the Crawdads Sing is a Mystery Thriller Novel Written by Delia Owens. This Best Selling Novel Charmed every reader as it sold Millions of Copies Worldwide. Where the Crawdads Sing has a Bizarre Title which also suits its book cover. Many of the books I’ve read were mostly Young adult fiction or RomCom. This is a first read for Crime Fictions for me, and it could also be for you. This book was adapted to live action, starring Daisy Edgar-Jones and Taylor John Smith, who played Kya and Tate Walker respectively. At first, This book was introduced to me by swifties because Taylor Swift took part in the Movie’s Theme song entitled ‘Carolina’, however, the book’s lead character, kya, had charmed me the most.

The Plot of the story revolves around Kya Clark, a young lady who lives alone most of her life in the marshland of North Carolina. She’s mostly Isolated from everyone else, only Tate and Chase Andrews visit her a lot in her home. She’s like me, she loves discovering things. She had Scientific Discoveries about the Swampland of North Carolina. Basically, Marshland is her only life, it is where she dedicated her life the most but then Chase Andrews came over. Suddenly, they became friends then lovers, but they did not end up with each other. She then met Tate Walker, a friend she once had. They rekindle the love they once had for each other, however, the news about Chase Andrews death shakes their relationship. Kya was accused of Murdering Chase Andrews, a crime of passion. The Novel then Narrates the battle of Kya to prove her innocence and present who really murdered Chase Andrews.

As for me, It was really the most thrilling book. You’d really think at the end how the Novel had gracefully narrated Kya's story. You’ll get the chills once you find out who really killed Chase Andrews. If you are looking for a Mystery Thriller book with a little bit of Romance and Drama, I think this is the best recommendation for you.
