Red Hood by Elana K. Arnold
3.0
Thank you Harper Collins Canada for providing me with an ARC in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.
I thought this book was a Red Riding Hood retelling. I thought this book would have a badass heroine.
This novel only did one of these things....
I understand why it could be considered a Red Riding Hood retelling, however, I think it was so far off it shouldn't be considered one. Maybe I read into the title to much and made assumptions I'm not entirely sure.
There was a badass heroine and I loved her with everything I could have. She takes the information she is given and just works with it. She doesn't shy away even though it seems like the craziest thing to ever happen.
However, I did not enjoy the way the author uses description in this novel. There were some parts that were just too described when it didn't need to be. Then when there was something you wanted more information about, she didn't give enough description. There were loose ends left untied, and information I wanted answers to.
All in all I thought this book was "meh", it didn't wow me.
