When I read this book, I was immediately pulled into Valerie's life, but I was a bit annoyed that the whole blurb on the back was only fulfilled when I had already read more than three quarters of the book. Another aspect of the book that I didn't like was that the classic tale of Red Riding Hood and Grandma-Wolf didn't even occur in the book. Instead, it happened in the "added chapter" of the book, in which the author reveals who the wolf actually was. But, everything else about the story was fairly good. There was adequate character development (although it wasn't the best, it was better than most books), but not much adventure or plot twists. To sum it up, the only unexpected part was in the added chapter. Trigger Warnings: Graphic violence. Fun thrilling read. A nice new take on a classic fairytale. I did not, however, like the ending. It seemed like a whole lot of buildup for a really wimpy and annoying conclusion. It was redeemed, however, in the fact that there is an additional ending online which is absolutely worth checking out because it nicely buttoned up the book. In fact, you could probably skip the entire last chapter IN the book and head straight to the internet.

This novel was so compelling. Eerie, dreamlike, beautiful and terrifying and mysterious.

Very good, but annoying that you have to go onto the internet to get the last chapter.
