After the 100-page mark with this book, I was ready to give it up, but I was just so frustrated by it that I was stubbornly set to finish it and give it a slamming review. I usually give novels about one hundred pages to grab me before I set them to the side and promptly forget about them. Quite honestly, this book made me see red. The movie trailer held the promises of danger, secrets, and seduction.but the novel held none of that for me. The trailer for the movie is beautiful and seductive - but does the book hold that same allure? Frankly, I can't say it did. Red Riding Hood, a tie-in novel to the 2011 movie of the same name, tries to be many things: a love story, a fairy tale, a mystery, and a thriller.
