This whimsical and emotional graphic novel has a fairytale feel. The main character is jealous of losing her brother's attention to his new wife, but she is also selfless and loves her family. Some elements could've been expanded more.
Graphic: Toxic relationship
Moderate: Confinement, Death, Domestic abuse, Infidelity, and Alcohol
Minor: Confinement, Sexism, and Pregnancy

Salt Magic is a short but sweet tale about growing up and overcoming the desire to stay young forever. I adored the protagonist, Vonceil, from the very beginning – she has such a strong personality and it’s impossible not to root for her.
I bought this book for its stunning cover. The artwork inside isn’t quite as beautiful, but it’s expressive and full of character. It’s clear that a great deal of care has gone into the designs – from the characters to the architecture to the props and vehicles. It’s a well-crafted graphic novel all round :)
Moderate: Confinement, Death, Infidelity, Violence, Blood, Abandonment, Alcohol, War, and Injury/Injury detail
Minor: Ableism, Animal death, Drug use, Gun violence, Sexism, Suicidal thoughts, Pregnancy, and Colonisation
