Spoiler Hazel is important Spoiler
Just some fun appreciation for an already underrated character, I remember a person I talked to didn't like her very much. The criticism was basically that she was I guess annoying and wasn't very helpful compared to the other denizens in the show. I'd like to respectfully disagree.
I can see Hazel coming off as annoying even if I personally don't think so, she is very hyper and at times talkative. She is just a kid though and I like how she's a little optimistic ray of sunshine surrounded by horrible people who just want to use her. Except for Tuba of course.
I would even argue that she is very important, one of the most important characters to the overall story in fact. She's the reason Grace learned empathy for the denizens and was the cause of her eventual redemption. I know Grace was ultimately the one to choose that path for herself but I don't think she would've started that journey without Hazel.

bug reason I need a book about Amelia switching between the past before Tulip and the present with Hazel (ideal for book 5)

Honestly my only complaint is that the show was never able to pick up on her
She left with Amelia and then we never saw either of them again, so we don't know what happened and can only really hope for the best

Yeah…whoever said that she wasn’t helpful when she’s the sole reason for changing grace just missed the mark.
It’s because hazel appeared human that Grace even tolerated her. Hazel is the reason why they gave Tuba the time of day. Hazel wasn’t meant to be a crime fighting character she’s meant to show grace that denizens are real and u can empathize with them. Challenging all of her beliefs.
