### ⭐⭐ Munro-sequel, but lacking
            
*by R***S on September 30, 2018*

There is a very clear and common theme to Hadley’s stories in this collection—a character moves from innocence to a necessary though often upsetting at first glimpse into experience and the reality of things. Many protagonists are young girls in guarded families or communities who meet up with the surprise appearances of boys out for a joy ride, or a rebellious teacher, or a suddenly widowed family friend. The sudden introduction to the complications of relationships, or the struggles of womanhood, are committed on them personally, or they observe such things and are changed by the knowledge of what they’ve seen.Though interesting, this theme proves redundant after a while, making the pursuit through Hadley’s writing style a bit of a strain. Hadley’s method very much echoes that of Alice Munro—stories are often set in an antiquated time associated with innocence, where tradition and manners are sacrosanct, a veneer Hadley challenges, but while Munro often proves unskimmable, as her flowing style often proves so subtle a character’s death can even pass you by if you’re not reading closely, Hadley’s redundancies can be foregone once you see what she’s up to again.

Write with the detail of Alice Munro about the small gestures and action that lead to deeper understand of domestic situations.
