Scarlet/Marissa Meyer/454 pgs/Fairy Tales Retold
This is the second title in the Lunar Chronicles and is based on the fairy tale of Red Riding Hood. Scarlet's grandmother has gone missing and with the help of a street fighter by the name of Wolf, Scarlet goes looking for her. The story is actually two stories - you get the continuing story of Cinder (the first book in series - based on Cinderella), a cyborg who finds out she really isn't what she appears to be and is running away from the Lunar Queen who wants to see her dead. This is a YA book but does include a lot of violence. The series is very good and I will continue to read - the next one is Cress and is due out next year.
