Scarlet was a really good, action-packed sequel to Cinder. Did it remind me a little of the second instalment of the Twilight series? Yeah, kinda. But I have to admit I’m more #teamWolf than I’ve ever been #teamJacob (don’t get me wrong, I considered Twilight pretty good when I was a teen). I’m a sucker for fairytale references/retellings and it was a really interesting take on Red Riding Hood. Solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for me. 🐺
