Lady Thief by A.C. Gaughen
3.0

3.75 Stars - I so far, would recommend the series if you like re-tellings and/or Robin Hood.

This is the sequel to Scarlet which I read in May. It was one of my favorite fairy tale re-tellings I have read so far! *and you know I've read A LOT!*

At first I didn't like it quite as much as the first one. It has a different plot thread, and takes time to introduce some new characters and situations... and I wasn't as into that. But after those intros were done, it was woven back with some of the plot lines from the first book and I started to get more into it.

I won't say a lot about this, since it is a sequel, but after it picked up it stayed consistently intriguing. I think I read it in two evenings. I didn't love it quite as much as the first... but more because of the plot changes than anything else. Overall I would rate it a 3.75. So still really good. Excited to read the third book in the series sometime soon! :)
