What the Woods Keep follows 18-year-old, Hayden, who has always been surrounded by strange happenings. This is probably mostly because I’m just not used to the genres and style of the novel, but I did enjoy the book overall. I have to say that I don’t really know how I feel about this book. But I decided to give What the Woods Keep a try because of the scientific concepts and science-minded protagonist, and the fact that it is a #loveozya debut novel. I don’t usually read dark fantasy or mystery novels… simply because they creep me out. And among them, deep in the woods, Hayden will discover something incredible -something that threatens reality itself. But now it's all catching up with her: her mother's mysterious disappearance a decade before, her father's outlandish theories about a lost supernatural race, and Hayden's own dark dreams of strange symbols and rituals in the Colorado woods where she grew up.Īs soon as Hayden arrives at her hometown, her friend Del in tow, it begins: Neighbors whisper secrets about Hayden's mother the boy next door is now all grown-up in a very distracting way and Hayden feels the trees calling to her. She's getting ready for college, living in a Brooklyn apartment, and hanging out with her best friend and roommate Del. Hayden tried to put the past behind her, and it worked. On her eighteenth birthday, Hayden inherits her childhood home - on the condition that she uncover its dark secrets. What the Woods Keep is the stunning debut of Katya de Becerra, who combines mystery, science fiction, and dark fantasy in a twisty story that will keep you mesmerized right up to the final page.
