Huffing and Puffing
SCARLET by Marissa Mayer. Feiwel and Friends, 2013.
This sequel to CONDER centers on Scarlet (Little Red Riding Hood anyone?) and her grandmother. Yes, there is the requisite wolf, a whole pack of them to be exact. And they are not your typical lupines either. As Cinder is escaping from prison where she awaits transport to certain death at the hand of Levana, Scarlet discovers that her grandmother has kept some things hidden from her for years. Those secrets are putting Scarlet's life and that of her grandmother in danger. Cross continent adventure, non-stop action, and more will thrill readers even if they have not read the first book in this series.
