Hazel and Gray
Hazel and Gray | Nic Stone
15 posts | 18 read | 2 to read
Two anxious young lovers lost in the woods. A beckoning mansion in a dark clearing. A short modern-day retelling of Hansel and Gretel by the number one New York Times bestselling author of Dear Martin.
It’s bad enough that Hazel and Gray have defied the demands of Hazel’s foul stepfather. The Monster has forbidden their romance. Now they’ve awakened in the forest, phones dead, hours past curfew. But not far away is a grand estate in the middle of nowhere. The door is open. In this short story about choosing your own path, the fury of the Monster that awaits them back home may be nothing compared to what lies ahead.
Hazel and Gray is part of Faraway, a collection of retold fairy tales that take the happily-ever-after in daring new directions. Whether read or listened to in one sitting, prepare to be charmed, moved, enlightened, and frightened all over again.

Book 4 of 2024.

I think this could have been great if it was longer/more fleshed out. The short story format made it feel too jumbled and confused.

These modern fairytales are super weird so far. I don‘t really know how to feel about them.

GypsyKat I‘m interested to read them. I love fairytale retellings usually, and I saw that there‘s one by Rainbow Rowell. Have you read that one yet? 4y
Literary_Siren @GypsyKat yes that‘s the first one I read. I‘d be interested in your review of it. It‘s super short but seemed kind of pointless to me. 4y
Literary_Siren @GypsyKat I believe that was the first I‘ve read of anything she‘s written. The writing was good but the story itself just fell a little flat. 4y

It wasnt quite as good as The Prince and the Troll but I might be biased for anything by Rainbow Rowell. I woshed I had more of a warning about the sex trafficking going on though.

Hazel and Gray the 2nd book I‘ve read from the faraway collection. The books are based on fairytales, only around 30 pages long.
The story was interesting loosely based on Hansel and Gretal. #fairytales #shortstories

Mandigolightly I just read this and totally thought the story was too big for the the 30 pages. It made it seem so rushed 4y
Ninja2020 I did feel like there were chunks missing. I still thought the story was good. I wonder whether all the books have a maximum word count? 4y

I waffled between giving this 2 and 3 stars. The writing was great, but the story felt like it was too big for short form.

This is an interesting retelling of Hansel and Gretel

This was a really good Hansel and Gretel retelling. The story feels a lot more thought out than the others in this collection and really has some stakes to it. Loved it.

Faraway, #2

4 stars

Ooooh Hazel and Gray is a really trippy, non-pg rated, modern reimagining of Hansel and Gretel. Equally disturbing and really absorbing. I've never read anything by Nic Stone before, but I'm thinking I'll need to look into changing that.
