Salt Is For Curing by Sonya Vatomsky
4.0
Unique and fantastic. Two of my favorite bits:
"Keep out of my underworld! neither drag
me to hell
nor drag me out of it, stop filling my mouth
with coins for
some stygian
ferryman. use your words! Ask permission. I
am magic enough"
"This is how it starts. You ask if it's a love potion
and I say yes, something like that,
in the sense that love and death are indistinct things,
liquid bubbling down-throat to still the limbs,
slow the heart"
