A review by cloaca_dentata
The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw

dark reflective medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

4.0

I had to stop and use a dictionary about 3ish times reading this book, but it was definitely in a great way. Khaw is a masterful storyteller and knows how to pack a grotesquely emotional punch in such a short book.
