Scarlet was everything I loved from Cinder, but bigger.
While, again, the plot was incredibly predictable due to the whole "fairy tale retelling" thing, it didn't retract any enjoyment from the overall story. The writing was inventive enough to carry the predictable parts of the plot. (It probably also helped that I stayed away from the shorts.)
And the characters were just *awesome*.
But then, I've got a weakness for assassins, mages, and thieves in fantasy.

LOVED IT!!!!! and now once again have to wait another year for the next installment. I am so excited to see what Cinder has in store for us next. Who will help stand up to the Evil Queen??? Will Iko ever get her new body??? And will they be in time to save Emperor Kai???? Ahhhhh!!!!!! Hurry and write the next book!
I loved this book. Wonderful heroine that I could identify with and root for? Check. Anti-hero? Check. Shenanigans and adventure times? Check and double check. It. Was. Awesome. I can't wait to finish the series!
