I am so excited that Where the Crawdads Sing has been chosen by Reese Witherspoon as the September book of the month for Reese’s Book Club x Hello Sunshine!
“I can’t even express how much I love this book! My September pick is “Where the Crawdads Sing” by Delia Owens. It’s about a young woman named Kya, who’s left to raise herself in the marshes of North Carolina when her family abandons her at a young age. There is so much to her story: romance, mystery, and a murder… and it takes place in the breathtaking backdrop of the South. I didn’t want this story to end!”
I'm grateful for Reese's very kind words about Kya and thrilled her story was chosen for Reese's club pick.
Anyone can join! Pick up a copy of CRAWDADS, then follow Reese’s Book Club x Hello Sunshine on Instagram or Facebook to read and discuss it together throughout the month.
