Sweet story...
Owens introduces us to Kya "The Swamp Girl" as we follow her life's story. Love, loss and a murder mystery make this book an enjoyable read. I don't really do murder mysteries. Those of you who read my reviews probably already know that. But for this one I was willing to make an exception as it has gotten such high praise. As with most murder mystery books, I had this one figured out almost from the beginning. The book held no surprises for me. But the difference about this book is that it wasn't really soley tuned in on the murder and the mystery of who done it. This book was more about the journey that the reader takes and getting to know the cast of characters. This book was very sweet in many of the details. You can't help but fall in love with Kya and feel sympathy for her. She is a very well-written character. The rest of the cast is also very well written. As for the story I'm a little torn. As I stated before the ending was no surprise to me but the way that the book is written with the murder taking a backseat is something that I really appreciate and it and helped me get through this book. All in all I'd have to say this book was very decent. I know a lot of people already love this book and I can see why. However this definitely isn't the type of book that I would read twice.
