Well. This book has just broken me. Gorgeous, five stars. Beautifully written, I really liked the short chapters from different POVs. The island setting, so wild and atmospheric, was a character in itself. I loved the Salt family, and Rowan too, though I took a little longer to warm to her. The whales, seals, penguins, albatrosses - I was willing them all to survive. I thought the thriller aspect was believable, and the evidence of climate change was very real and frightening. I did not expect the ending.
