The problem with reviewing books months after I've read them is I can't remember anything. I think there was a weird thing with Hazel's adoption (or another adopted kid) in this book, but I can't remember what. The story itself was just kind of eh. It didn't feel that innovative, but it also wasn...
Her class at her old school looked out on a small patch of woods, and Hazel had always thought that there was something magical about them, that it was the sort of place she and Jack were supposed to go into together. They would bring breadcrumbs, and they would cross through the line of trees to se...
“A boy got a splinter in his eye, and his heart turned cold. Only two people noticed. One was a witch, and she took him for her own. The other was his best friend.

Pro:Das Cover gefällt mir sehr, sehr gut. Es ist mal etwas ganz Anderes und gibt das Märchenhafte der Geschichte wunderbar wieder! Was man auf Fotos nicht sehen kann: die Schneeflocken glänzen, was das Titelbild nochmal richtig hübsch macht.Märchen sind in den letzten Jahren wieder in Mode gekommen,...
