This book is definitely different than what I normally read.  I was really hoping that I would like it despite that, and I did!I really like fairy tale retellings! I love Once Upon a Time on tv, and I've loved the Red Riding Hood Story there, so I was excited to read this one, and I have to say, it didn't disappoint!Scarlette is dealing with a difficult mom and a grandmother who is her whole world and a bunch of wolf attacks.  When her grandmother is bitten and survives, things change and she has to figure out what is going on.Things are kind of crazy for her and the ending is kind of a surprising one, but the story to get there takes all kinds of twists and turns along the way.The story is dark and kind of gothic and totally one to roll around in on a dark, stormy night.  I loved the tone and feel of the story, and totally immersed myself in the story. I could totally feel myself a part of the action, just watching it off to the side!
