Salt Love by Marika Ray – Review by Maisie Dickinson

Salt Love: A Summer Romantic Comedy by Marika Ray
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Marika Ray’s Salt Love follows newly divorced Kenna as she moves to Sunshine Keys, Florida to handle her late aunt’s estate and meets her next-door neighbour with a big secret, Dec. Kenna starts off a bit judgemental and Dec seems like a sweetheart, then Dec seems a bit misogynistic and Kenna becomes really relatable, but eventually they start to sync and become much more likeable. The book was really well-written, including the ending, although I felt like the ending seemed too soon. My favourite character was Maeve, she seems like my kind of person. I recommend this book mainly because I found it inspiring. I feel like I really needed to read this at this point in my life. ‘An acknowledgement that the journey was better than the ending.’
