At the time the novel takes place, she and her mother have finally slowed down a little bit and are living in a posh apartment with her mother’s new husband and his teenage daughter, Audrey.īut Alice knows their new slow, somewhat stable lifestyle won’t last, and she’s right: when she receives word that her famous grandmother, Althea Proserpine, has passed away at her estate (called, of course, The Hazel Wood), her life gets turned on its head once more and the “bad things” are about to catch up to her again-and get much closer than ever before. Alice has spent most of her life moving frequently with her mother, seemingly always on the run from “bad things” or bad luck, even if she didn’t always totally understand what the bad things were. The Hazel Wood is a contemporary fantasy novel by Melissa Albert which centers on the main character of seventeen-year-old Alice.
Much like the main character of this book, actually. Instagram // back! And I’m back with a vengeance, because this review has been a long time coming and I have a lot to say, and some of it may come across a little…erm…let’s say “strong-willed”.
