Book Review - Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

This book, Scarlet, is the second installment in Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles series. It is a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood.

 It follows Cinder who is trying to escape from prison along with Scarlet Benoit who is in France. Her grandmother is missing and she finds out her grandmother has been keeping secrets from her. Then she meets Wolf, who is a street fighter, and she thinks he has information on where her grandmother is. They go on a journey to find her and on the way they meet up with Cinder and together they have to try to make a plan on how to stop the Lunar Queen Levana, who would do anything to make Prince Kai her husband.

This book was just as good as Cinder and the new characters were very intriguing and funny. I really enjoyed it and the plot was very good and again it was a major page turner.4.5/stars.

 Give this series a try, I guarantee you'll enjoy it!

    Oh wow Elaine, I'm glad you liked Scarlet, definitely read the others as they are just as good if not better!!!! I'll check out Frozen, thanks for telling me about it, I love to read something different.
    If you read Cress and Cinder, tell me what you think of them.

    Thanks Elaine,
    Leah.
