This is a very, very odd book. It's supposedly a retelling of Red Riding Hood but it deviates very heavily. Not an unwelcome thing, but it is something to be aware of. Likewise, there's a number of plot threads that are...out of place? The main character is fun while also being relatively insufferable too. I don't think I'd recommend it but I wouldn't say I wasted my time reading it.
