Past Little Red reviews I didn't re-link to during the event:

*BEAUTY AND THE WEREWOLF by Mercedes Lackey

The ones that interest me the most on that list are RED HOOD'S REVENGE by Jim C. Hines (Which I own and wanted to do for the event, but meep!)The Red Hood, Black Hood Trilogy by Kenneth W. Hether (Because the summary sounds AWESOME, stating that "Little Red Riding Hood is executed to awaken the powers of her fabled cloak, which is to be worn by a Grim-Reaper called "The Red Reaper"), and WITCHES ABROAD by Terry Pratchett (Which was just loaned to me for Fairy Tale Fortnight, all right!!)


What was your favorite thing about A Week of Little Red?  What Little Red-inspired stuff did I overlook?

Thanks for stopping by all week.  I hope you had as much fun as I did!

Comments

  1. Confession: I've kind of been avoiding all posts concerning Scarlet til I read the book! I want to experience it without any preconceptions! But this Week of Little Red was so incredibly well organized and so many of the posts look awesome, that I'm going to star this post on my Google Reader and return to it later to devour when I'm suffering from my Scarlet hangover :)
