Red Hood is a neat take on Little Red Riding Hood. As a full fledged adult, it was awkward reading explicit sex scenes between two sixteen year olds, but if I was reading this at sixteen, I would be totally taken (I choked on my tea when Bisou’s mother’s birth year was revealed and she’s only a year than me). Love that menstruation is a central figure in this book, the women characters support and love each.
