review 1: Es curioso lo de este libro, porque sus protagonistas no paran de desternillarse y a mí, humilde lectora, no me han hecho ni esbozar una leve sonrisa. Por no hablar de ese supuesto final emotivo (odio, odio, odio con toda mi alma las referencias musicales en los libros, sobre todo si son tan obvias como estas).En fin, que me temo que el mayor valor de La sal de la vida está en su corta extensión.
review 2: Even though the book was quite short, it was really coherent and compact. Gavalda did an amazing job with this one! Hardly ever have I read a short story this good. The writing style appealed to me a lot and the Finnish translation was great too. The plot worked and was interesting - the idea something we could all do..haha.The characters were well built a... morend it didn't take Gavalda that many pages, which in itself is a miracle. I loved all the siblings and especially Garance as a narrator. Somehow her views on life and everything was so amazingly great. Carine was a nice counterpart to her by being the weirdo of the group in which she didn't even belong.I would've given five stars if the ending had been a bit more like an ending. Perhaps I was waiting for more contemplative stuff and the book almost got there. Almost. I also didn't get the "we must grow up and severe our ties", since when and why would you need to do that? Siblings are for life! less
