Salt Magic was such a beautiful and endearing graphic novel! Its whimsical and slightly unsettling atmosphere reminded me a lot of Studio Ghibli films, and the characters were all very interesting and charming.

Salt Magic was a gorgeous middle grade graphic novel about family, sacrifice, and love. i loved the magic systems in play, as well as the backstory of the witches and Vonceil’s family.
the pacing was a little off to me, and i wish the minor conflicts had been stronger, but overall this was a fun, quick read and i will definitely be following the illustrator’s work in the future!
