aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh!!!!!!!!!! This book is awesome! I think it's my favorite book now (Princess of the Midnight Ball is a close second though) :)! I love the cover, it's so beautiful, it's what drew me to the book, but I don't know if I would've even tried reading (because I didn't know how morally good it would be) it if I hadn't read some of the comments that I saw on goodreads.com and that it's a christian fiction book. I was so happy when I saw that one girl wrote that she would recommend it to "Those who like their YA books clean" and also when I read the rest of her comment. I found out after reading it that it is very loosely based on Sleeping Beauty and looking back at the story I can see how, but while I was reading it I didn't ever think about it (probably because I was too into what was happening).
I have to rate it a little over PG (it seems all the books I'm finding are PG, not a bad thing, just not quite the best thing) for scariness and a little grossness, but I wouldn't recommend it to anyone younger than 13 or 14 year old, not because there's anything BAD in it (because there isn't anything), but because it's a romance novel.
Here's the summary from the back of the book.

Princess of the Silver Woods by Jessica Day George
This book puts a twist on the little red riding hood story. I really like the story line. As with the first 2 books I wish I could rate it E, but again unfortunately, I can't. I have to rate
it in between PG and PG-13 for scariness and a bit of language and would recommend it to someone who's at least 13. I am very disappointed in the author, she's LDS, but in this book there are a few swear words :(.
Here's a good summary.
