Join Amanda and I as we read Sisters Red! :)

I might join. I will let you know in a few weeks.

I plan to join :)

Yay! Glad you can join us Megan!! :D

oooh! I'm in!

I'll join!

Yay!!

Looks like I will be able to get this book!

Yay Mandiann!

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

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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?

Yeah that sounds perfectly fine with me. :)

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

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

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)]

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)]

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)]

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

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. :)

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.

Sorry I am late, just started it today/

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

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

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

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....

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)]

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.

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

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

yay! I hope you like it!

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.

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

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.

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)]

I didn't like Silas either.
