The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert

4.0

A deliciously creepy twist on fairytales, The Hazel Wood is of course a must-read for those who are tired of the retelling tropes. Incredibly original, amazingly descriptive, and all-around enchanting. I loved Alice's descriptions of herself and the world around her, and it only got better the further I read. The Hinterland was incredibly interesting to me, and kind of reminded me of The School for Good and Evil, which I love so very much.
