Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Sab H.

This was a gripping, dark, fully enjoyable read. Pierce turns a common
fairy tale into pure bloody awesomeness with her wonderful writing and
alternating points of view. It's not a re-telling though, instead it is
fully original and surprising story based in the popular folktale Little Red Riding Hood. Explores dark
desires, passions and dedications while yet having the right amount of
romance. Involves family, friendship and friendship becoming family.

The
characters were strikingly clever. Scarlett was a very strong
character, and even though she's frustrating and unbearable at times,
you can't help but love her and understand Rosie. The ending was
somewhat predictable, at some point you can definitely see it coming,
but I enjoyed it nonetheless. The cover is genius! Seriously one of the
most eye-catching non-pictured covers ever. If you enjoy urban fantasy
you will love this one!
