Little : Tu me diras si tu trouves le roman ;)
Oui Hex Hall m'a finalement plu et j'avoue que j'avais peur au début :) Mais ouf !
Là, je lis "Scarlette" de Davonna Juroe ! Ce n'est pas du tout connu mais elle m'a contacté via internet (et grâce à @Crouton !)
C'est un ebook et c'est ça qui me gêne le plus haha
Sinon j'aime beaucoup pour l'instant : c'est un "remix" du Chaperon Rouge et du mystère de la Bête du Gévaudan !
Couverture : <image>Résumé VO : Scarlette, an 18-year-old peasant lives under a dark threat. A nightmarish creature lurks in the surrounding forest, killing the villagers one by one.
When Scarlette’s grandmother survives an attack, Scarlette learns that her grandmother hasn’t suffered the bite of just any normal animal.
Now desperate, Scarlette searches throughout her province to find a cure. But there are those who want to keep their pasts hidden.
As she begins to uncover the dark secrets of her village, Scarlette is befriended by a local nobleman and a woodcutter who share a gruesome history with the Beast.
To save her grandmother, Scarlette must unravel their mystery and solve an age-old crime. But as she pieces together the clues, Scarlette finds herself torn between the two men, both of whom want to be more than friends and hold the key to the cure.
Based on both the Grimm and Perrault versions of Little Red Riding Hood and set against the terrifying, historic Beast of Gévaudan attacks, this dark YA retelling blends two epic legends, giving the fabled girl-in-the-red-cloak a new, shockingly real existence.
