*Karen McManus, bestselling author of One of Us is Lying*
The Hazel Wood kept me up all night. I had every light burning and
the covers pulled tight around me as I fell completely into the
dark and beautiful world within its pages. Terrifying, magical, and
surprisingly funny, it's one of the very best books I've read in
years.
*Jennifer Niven*
Thoroughly, creepily captivating, with surprises I never saw
coming! Such a refreshing and beautifully written inversion of the
classic fairytale-inspired story.
*Kristin Cashore, award-winning, New York Times bestselling author
of the Graceling Realm series*
This book will be your next obsession. Welcome to the Hazel Wood,
where bad luck is a living thing, princesses are doomed, and every
page contains a wondrously terrible adventure - it's not safe
inside these pages, but once you enter, you may never want to
leave.
