Wishlist Wednesday is a weekly meme hosted by Dani over @Pen to Paper and is a great way of showing off the books that we are dying to get our hands on :)

 Sisters Red (Fairytale Retellings #1) - Jackson Pearce

Scarlett March lives to hunt the Fenris--the werewolves that took her eye when she was defending her sister Rosie from a brutal attack. Armed with a razor-sharp hatchet and blood-red cloak, Scarlett is an expert at luring and slaying the wolves. She's determined to protect other young girls from a grisly death, and her raging heart will not rest until every single wolf is dead.

Rosie March once felt her bond with her sister was unbreakable. Owing Scarlett her life, Rosie hunts ferociously alongside her. But even as more girls' bodies pile up in the city and the Fenris seem to be gaining power, Rosie dreams of a life beyond the wolves. She finds herself drawn to Silas, a young woodsman who is deaI ams loving him mean betraying her sister and all that they've worked for?

 I am loving fairy tale retellings right now so this book seems like the perfect book to add to my growing collection of books. This book sounds so good and such a great adaptation of the Little Red Riding Hood tale. I read the first few chapters free on my kindle and loved loved loved the first chapter. I also love the cover for this book. The black and red colours are so striking. Really looking forward to maybe getting this book soon and adding it my shelves.

  4. I love this one! I also am a big fan of fairy tale retellings, and this one reminded me a bit of Buffy (always a good thing!). I agree about the cover -- it's on my favorite covers board on Pinterest! :) The author's Hansel & Gretel retelling, Sweetly, is good too. Enjoy!

  6. I've seen this book around a lot lately! ^^
    Anyway, I'm not really into story retellings so I guess it won't affect me that much, on the other hand I hope you'll get the chance to read it soon!

  8. I have this book but I have yet to read it! I've heard such good things about it. I think I am going to read in Feb. For some reason fairytale books sound good for the month.
