The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw

adventurous challenging dark mysterious tense medium-paced

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

Really great/unique word choices, tightly written & almost disturbing descriptions, and enjoyed how Cass Khaw played around with mermaid tropes. Definitely wanted more.
