Scarlet is the second book in the Lunar Chronicles by Marissa Meyer. If you have not read the first book I will link the review here click because this review might contain some spoilers from the first book. There will be no spoilers for Scarlet though!
I gave Scarlet five stars on Goodreads, I read it in one sitting. It was impossible to put down. This book series consists of fairy tale retellings, every book focusing on an other fairy tale and another main character. Even though there is a new main story the story line from the first book Cinder still continues which I was very happy about. This was clearly a retelling of Little Red Riding Hood but that did not mean you know what was going to happen. I loved this book which is not that common for a sequel and would recommend anyone to start this series. It is something new and exciting, the characters are great and you can truly dive into this futuristic world.
There is just one thing I have to warn you about and that is that there are pretty and there (sadly) are very ugly covers for this series. I have accidentally ordered one of the not so pretty versions of the book and though normally I would not care so much about the cover it annoyed me a lot. It does have the same design but it is 'placed' differently so just be careful if you care about these kind of things!
What are your thoughts on SCARLET? Do you have any book recommendations for me? Please do not leave spoilers in the comments!
