Red by Nichol DeCastra in its entirety, is a romantic fantasy with some action scenes.
The atmosphere of the book is mysterious from the start, and the presence of the red moon described as a blood moon made the writing more imaginative, descriptive, and magical.
The writing style in this book is engaging, captivating, and hooking, and the story is fast-paced with the author not dragging a single scene. The author uses sharp, short, and clean sentences and avoids giving any boring details and that makes this book unique.
The dialogues in this book were good but they lacked depth. But this conveys the individualism of each character because the characters were always in the flow of speaking and talking at a fast pace.
The book is solely based on the story of two characters, Meave and Sói. Meave is an intelligent and modern girl who tries to manage and accept her living conditions as soon as life throws something at her. She is brave and knows how to stand up for herself. She is also outspoken and bold and is not afraid of anything. Her courage after her parents sell her off to a pack of werewolves is exemplary.
Sói on the other hand is a werewolf and the heir to the pack. Unlike other werewolves you may find in other books, Sói was not a brooding or very masculine character always filled with anger. He always tried to treat Meave as her equal and tried to check on Meave’s opinions regarding his decisions. Sói had a courageous personality and tried to keep Meave safe from any harm. Sói was optimistic, flexible, confident, and reliable. He cared for Meave from the very start.
