Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

This is the second book in a great new science fiction series called: The Lunar Chronicles.  The first book is titled "Cinder," and I have written about it in an earlier blog entry.  Just as Cinder is a loose retelling of the traditional Cinderella, the new characters we meet in Scarlet remind us of the Little Red Riding Hood tale.  Cinder continues to try to save Emperor Kai and her world from the evil Lunar queen.  The story switches back and forth between Cinder and Scarlet's stories until they finally intersect at the end of the story. These two characters and their friends are going to have to work together to save Earth from the Lunar's that are trying to take over with their mind-controlling abilities.  This one leaves us hanging again and now we have to wait for book #3 in this trilogy. This series is a must read if you like
futuristic science fiction.
