A review by careinthelibrary
Salt Houses by Hala Alyan

dark emotional reflective sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes

4.0

I didn't love all the characters' perspectives, but some of them I loved with my whole heart. They all contributed to the beautiful, complex tapestry that is this novel.
