Borrowed from a friend at work. Got sucked in pretty quickly with the dual timelines amping up the tension. Don't know about the white woman writing about indigenous people though. My friend who lent it out is cool with it, for what's its worth.
I was with MC all the way to the end until she made dumb dumb dumb decisions that just bugged the shit out of me. Bit of a let down there, and the eplilogue was anticlimactic without a message or point. I'd never heard or read the fairy tale of the marsh king's daughter before and I find the connection nebulous. But whatever.
TL;DR: Enjoyable enough. Lackluster ending. Questionable how memorable it'll be. Only time will tell. Glad I only borrowed it.
