katymaryreads 's review for:

The Blue Salt Road by Joanne M. Harris
4.0
dark emotional sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

Atmospheric re-telling of the Selkie myth, with beautiful illustrations by Bonnie Hawkins. Quite sad, and no really likeable characters, just those backed into corners by their own limitations and those of their environment.
