The Salt Grows Heavy by Cassandra Khaw

I honestly have no idea what I’ve just read.
What I know for sure that this was a dark fairytale horror retelling of The Little Mermaid and the cover of the book is stunning.
Maybe it was the prose like writing style that wasn’t for me… I’m not sure because the way it was written was beautiful but made everything way too complicated and hard to understand.
I enjoyed my time reading this novella but in the same time with easier word choices I could have even understand the story as well.
