[[deleted user]]

Yay Mandiann!

[Kathy]

Oh! This one is really good! If you guys end up reading the whole series, I'll jump on at which is book #3!! :D

[Amanda]

I have the first 2 books I need to buy the others, but after I read the 2nd book I will read the 3rd book with you.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay! I can't wait to start tomorrow! I'm so ready for this one!!

[Trinity]

I loved this book a lot! I hope you all enjoy it :)

[Mandiann]

I won't be able to start until March 1st. Too many books to finish before the end of February.

[Amanda]

I'm also very excited for tomorrow to start this book.

@Mandiann That's okay you can just start the book then, no rush.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

awww...no worries Mandiann! Jump in when you can :)

[Amanda]

Is there a way we want to read this or just at our own pace?

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I just plan to come back after I read every 5 chapters or so and post :)

that way we can go at our own pace but still be chatting about the same things

does that sound okay?

[Amanda]

Yeah that sounds perfectly fine with me. :)

[Megan]

I won't be able to start this one until Saturday when I get it from my library.

[Mandiann]

No worries, Megan. I will also be starting late.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

sorry, I was gone all day and just now can post

I'm 11 chapters in

(view spoiler)[ it's okay so far....nothing that I'm loving or hating (hide spoiler)]

Rosie (view spoiler)[ this kind of weird love triangle is just...weird.... (hide spoiler)]

Scarlett (view spoiler)[ meh. I like how hungry she is to fight but she seems like a loose canon (hide spoiler)]

and I think (view spoiler)[ Silas is the new werewolf. maybe I'm wrong but...weren't those guys headed to Silas' house when they attacked Rosie?? Hmmmm (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

I've been trying to catch up to chapter 11, I plan on trying to read more tonight or tomorrow.

(view spoiler)[I'm actually enjoying the book, it wasn't what I was expecting at first but it's good. (hide spoiler)]

Rosie (view spoiler)[I think it's kinda cute how she is crushing on Silas. (hide spoiler)]

Scarlett (view spoiler)[I'm not quite sure how she really feels about Silas. She does feel like a loose canon and doesn't care what happens to herself. (hide spoiler)]

I totally agree @Trisha (view spoiler)[I feel like it is Silas who is the new werewolf. I felt like that part seems a little weird to me. (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yikes, so sorry guys. I had an overnight at the zoo with girl scouts and I'm finally back! YAY!

and...I'm so sorry! I'm done with this one. I just couldn't update.

all in all (view spoiler)[ it was okay. I wish we'd had a little more fairytale retelling... (hide spoiler)]

and I thought (view spoiler)[ the love story was kind of...weird. I hated when Silas kissed Scarlett - even if it was to prove a point.

but I did like the characters and enjoy the story (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I can't wait to see what you guys think!

[Amanda]

My sister 21st birthday was yesterday so I wasn't able to read any of the book. But I hope to finish the book either tonight or tomorrow. :)

[Megan]

I just started this on today and I am about 100 pages in and so far I like it.

I like really like Scarlett's drive to kill fenris but I wish that it wouldn't consume her life like it does.

[Mandiann]

Sorry I am late, just started it today/

[Amanda]

@Mandiann That's okay, I'm not done with it yet I'm going to finish it today hopefully. :) Hope you enjoy it!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

No worries Mandiann! We're here!!! :D

[Megan]

That's okay, Mandiann! Take your time! :)

[Mandiann]

I am actually about halfway through (audiobooking it, had lots of chores to do today). I am just waiting for this chapter to end so I can get an idea of where I am....

[Mandiann]

Okay, just finished chapter 11.

Scarlet (view spoiler)[ I disagree. I don't think she is a loose cannon. I agree with her. Knowing what is out there and that they can stop it, how can the others not fight? Especially after witnessing the brutality of the wolves. (hide spoiler)]

Rose(view spoiler)[ Shes okay.... yes, the love triangle is odd....very odd. I don't really feel like rooting for either side. Actually I do, I am rooting for Rose and Scarlet. Screw Silas. (hide spoiler)]

Silas(view spoiler)[ I total agree. He is for sure the potential. I think that potentials might be the seventh sons of a seventh son...possibly??? (hide spoiler)]

[Amanda]

Okay so I just finished the book! :)

(view spoiler)[I actually enjoyed this book more then I thought I would. I liked how the book ended for all of them. I'm just glad Silas lived, I actually like him. (hide spoiler)]

I'm excited to read the second book as soon as possible.

[Mandiann]

I am on chapter 25....I think.. I should finish soon.

[Mandiann]

Still working on this one. I only have about 2 hours of audiobook left. Should be finished tomorrow.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

yay! I hope you like it!

[Mandiann]

I am enjoying it but it's not my favourite retelling. I enjoyed Scarlet (Lunar Chronicles) a million times more than I am enjoying this one.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Yeah...this one wasn't my favorite either....it's not bad. It just didn't "wow" me, ya know?

[Megan]

I haven't read that many retellings of red riding hood so I don't have anything to compare it to, but I did like this one. There were some things that I didn't like about it though.

[Mandiann]

Is it bad that I was disappointed when (view spoiler)[ we learned that Silas was bitten after midnight and wouldn't be turning and therefore would need to be killed? (hide spoiler)].

I didn't hate it but I didn't love it either.

I did enjoy the alternating POV's.

I really disliked Silas. I thought it was extremely inappropriate when he (view spoiler)[ kissed Scarlet. And then from what I can recall he did not tell Rosie about it. (hide spoiler)]

[Megan]

I didn't like Silas either.
