To me this is the best book of the Tales of Beauty & Madness's trilogy. And maybe I'm not being 100% unbiased, Little Red Riding Hood being of my favorite tales.
Since Nameless, Ruby is my favorite girl among the trio. She is wild, fierce, loyal, brave, feminist and at the same time so insecure and fragile that you want to protect her from everything. Both her love interests are so right on the spot, one of them prying on her weakness and the other one boosting her wild side. It's always interesting seeing such a strong character slowly loosing herself because of society expectations and "love", and realizing some part of herself are dying. I really feared she would end up being eaten by the bad big wolf before she decides to be herself again.
The retelling part is as nicely done as in Wayfarer, and all the characters play their part as they should.
