Chargement... Salt Magic (2022)par Hope Larson, Rebecca Mock
   Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.   ) boopingaround | Mar 6, 2024 |  I loved the opening, with its vivid portrayal of being a girl on the cusp of adolescence, and of rural American life in 1919. It turns into a fairytale-esque coming-of-age adventure in which Vonceil sets off to save her family, and I liked that, too, but not quite as much as the beginning. (Which surprised me. Maybe this story is the sort that I prefer in prose format, which can capture atmosphere and a protagonist’s emotions in a different way from pictures?) I was a bit disappointed by the final scenes, which felt rushed and didn’t really address my questions about how Vonceil re-adjusts to ordinary life after her adventure. But I would still recommend this, it really is lovely. (  ) Herenya | Oct 29, 2023 | After taking time throughout the story, the ending seemed abrupt and the closing pages of the flash-forward epilogue felt like a mistake, making me close the book with a slight scowl.
