Where do I even start? I very much liked this book. It’s fairytale like but freaky. 😆
House of Salt and Sorrows is a retelling from the Brothers’ Grimm Twelve Dancing Princesses, but with many of its own unique details. This story ticked many boxes for me. If you choose to read this beautiful story, you can expect the following:
1. Gothic Vibes, including a Dark and Mysterious Atmosphere
2. Greek Mythology and Fae Magical Elements
3. A Haunting Seaside Setting
4. A Few Dashes of YA Horror
5. A Sprinkle of Romance
Moderate: Grief, Child death, Death, Suicide, and Blood
Minor: Animal cruelty and Animal death

One of the big problems is that Annaleigh is not a very active participant in the story. Pretty much everything would have happened whether or not she was present which made it hard to engage with her.
I did enjoy this book but I think it could have been so much more.
