Valerie's sister was beautiful, kind, and sweet. Now she is dead. Henri, the handsome son of the blacksmith, tries to console Valerie, but her wild heart beats fast for another: the outcast woodcutter, Peter, who offers Valerie another life far from home. After her sister's violent death, Valerie's world begins to spiral out of control. For generations, the werewolf has been kept at bay with a monthly sacrifice. But no one is safe. When an expert wolf hunter arrives, the villagers learn that the creature lives among them - it could be anyone in town. It soon becomes clear that Valerie is the only one who can hear the voice of creature. The Wolf says she must surrender herself before the Blood Moon wanes . . . or everyone she loves will die. This is a dangerous new vision of a classic fairy tale, and for readers who want even more of Valerie's riveting story, a bonus chapter that extends the drama is available at http://www.redridinghoodbook.com/.

bro. ATLEAST TELL ME WHO THE WOLF IS BRO WALLAH THIS GUY. gosh this valerie is so stupid man just go for henry which is like the perfect guy in every sense but you decide to go for a dude you have 0 chemistry with. its such a bad cliche character (valerie) with absolutely no characters development. i wish i could take back all the time i spent reading this horrid book.
the minute things got interesting, it just dies down like what are the authors doing omg. the first 2 parts of the book were so mid, worst initial chapters ever idk how i made it through.
Valerie, respectfully, get a life.
So, from what I gather, this book was written after the screenplay? I might have misunderstood. But anyhow, because of that I didn't have very high expectations for this book. It turns out that is was actually pretty good! Right along with the other characters in the story, I had no idea who the wolf was, and was suspicious of everyone! Usually I can figure things out enough to have some kind of hint at what is coming, but when I read the final/bonus chapter online and the wolf was revealed, I have to admit, I didn't see it coming.
That kind of makes me mad, because I should have figured it out. But I didn't. :-)
I suppose now I should go get the movie and watch it!
