My partner and I have been desperately searching for a book they read in highschool (2015-2019). From what they remember, the book cover was black with a bleeding heart. They're also pretty certain they got it in a Scholastic bookfair.

Spoilers Ahead!:

(view spoiler)[ The book itself is about little red riding hood, who teams up with jack (from jack and the beanstalk) to save her grandmother? There's also elements of embroidery (the grandmother stabs someone in the hand) and torture, where red riding hood has to save the other, captured fairytale members (Rapunzel and Hansel + Gretel are the ones that they remember). If anyone has any clue what the title to this book is please let me know!! (hide spoiler)]

The book is NOT Winter, The Sisters Grimm, or Land Of Stories.

I believe “The (fairly) true story of _____” series by Liesl Shurtliff has a Red riding hood/Jack crossover at some point.

I haven’t read this one, but “Half upon a time” by James Riley might also fit the bill.

it was neither of these!! we just found the book and it was Dead Upon A Time by Elizabeth Paulson
