A Red Ridinghood retelling with magic, a woman-controlling religious system, with an MMC reminiscent of Edward Cullen, and strong female archetypes. 

“Coming of rage” is used to describe it, which I agree with. Love me some female rage. 

Thanks to The Realm Studios for the digital ARC in exchange for a review.
