So, this book is a movie tie-in edition of the movie starring Amanda Seyfried. I found after reading and watching the movie that the two were meant to be done together. Things that were missing in the movie were explained in the book and similarly what was missing in the book was in the movie.
Overall though, the book was not written that bad. It did not come off as cheesy as it did in the movie. The only bit that bothered me was that it could be very choppy at times where it would cut very awkwardly from scene to scene. This book was worth the read as I now can understand the movie more, so I do recommend if you are interested in a darker re-telling of the Little Red Riding Hood to pick up the book and the movie as well as they really do come together better as a pair.

Interesting... That's not something I hear about often. I liked the movie, myself. Maybe this book is a good idea for me.
