One fan wrote: ‘Highly recommend the book!’
Another shared: ‘Good one to watch. I really enjoyed this but it is sad at the end. I may watch again.’
Netflix fans have gone wild for Where The Crawdads Sing, which is based on the eponymous 2018 novel by Delia Owens
Others labelled it as ‘very good’, ‘outstanding’ and ’10/10′.
Viewers were referring to Where The Crawdads Sing, which is based on the the 2018 novel of the same name by Delia Owens.
The film stars Daisy Edgar-Jones, Taylor John Smith, Harris Dickinson, Michael Hyatt, Sterling Macer Jr., Jojo Regina, Garret Dillahunt, Ahna O’Reilly, and David Strathairn.
The plot is centred around a defiant girl, Kya (Edgar-Jones), who raises herself to adulthood in a North Carolina marshland after being abandoned.
However, when the town’s hotshot is found dead, she is the prime suspect and is tried for murder.
Upon its release in July 2022, the picture received mixed reviews from critics, who praised Edgar-Jones’s performance and the cinematography, but found the film’s overall tone to be somewhat incoherent.
However, the film was a bigger success at the box office, grossing $144.3million worldwide from a budget of $24million.
As well as being popular with audiences, it was a hit with music fans and Swifties across the globe, as Taylor Swift’s Carolina was featured in the soundtrack.
