SOLVED. Only published this year, fiction recommended in a magazine [s]

[Lucy]

I read a recommendation for a Summer read in a magazine, can't find the magazine or remember the title of the book. It was about a community and a man that lived in the woods. He/someone chooses a girl from the community to go in to the woods and assist him but we don't know what with. It sounds like a fantasy book, I just wish I could remember the title. I've scoured book shelves and can't find it. Please can someone help?
