Scarlet is a fun book in how it twists the tale of Red Riding Hood, and Meyer does a good job at subverting the tale so that even though you know how it ends, you doubt it. There's lots of action which makes this book go by fast, but it's still setting up the main conflict with out much action being done by the characters to address said main conflict.
