Review: The Hazel Wood

The Hazel Wood The Hazel Wood by Melissa Albert
My rating: 2 of 5 stars

2.5 Stars. Beginning was interesting. Living in New York as a kid just trying to fit in and finally settle somewhere. Mystery parents, grandmother, and where grandmother lives.
Middle was okay, kinda weak, and the ending kinda lost me. I know it's geared towards people who like fairytales and wanted to be original but gah, it was just okay.
I got bored at the end sadly.
Melissa Albert definitely has a flare for writing though, she writes like she's stirring a bowl of story with a sprinkle of this and a scoop of that. I like how she writes when the characters think to themselves - seems simple but that's a true art.
