Im an avid reader of John Grishams courtroom drama stories, and havent found another author that compares, until Delia Owens Where the Crawdads Sing. He would have known them she killed him.

Its confirmed by the detectives who send it to a lab that its an exact match (between the fibers on Chases jacket and from the hat in Kyas place). So I sympathize with Kya, and I think even though I was not abandoned as a child, I have felt abandoned in my life, and identify with her feelings and fears of living her entire life alone and unloved. Surely Mr Jumpin warned Tate of Chase possibly hurting Kya. But first a quote from the Firefly Poem in the books conclusion: Female fireflies draw in strange males with dishonest signals and eat them; mantis females devour their own mates.

Jodis memories growing up of stories untold, the fathers final whereabouts/news articles on possible cause death and date, other siblings whereabouts. See the archives. From Mas book maybe..it had pictures of birds with their names and the rest facts..she had good observational skills. Im still so confused about the movie and book I think I have to go wash the book I mean read the book and go see the movie afterwards being a male it doesnt interest me much but the book was so famous sold a lot of copies just like Harry Potter and Fifty Shades of Gray which both of those I dislike so much I started reading some of it and I just didnt like it and I did the same thing with this book started reading it didnt like it went to watch the movie walked out out of it in 15 minutes I guess I have to see the movie from the beginning and to the end to understand what its all about?

I just finished reading and Im pretty sure it says that they held up the plastic bags up in court. For this reason, Tate reclaims her nickname, the Marsh Girl, using it as a term of endearment instead of a nasty sign of the surrounding communitys insensitivity. I wanted to say that I think another reason the ski cap was such a big deal was to make the reader think that maybe Tate could have killed chase. They're like having in-class notes for every discussion!, This is absolutely THE best teacher resource I have ever purchased. It makes sense to me. Kaya could have went to the Fire Tower once back in town and found it. Who was the man at the end who received the necklace. He probably walked.
