Beastly is a modern day re-telling of Beauty and the Beast. I was expecting just that, a simple fairy tale, but I found this book to be so AMAZING. It's hard to express why- but I think it has something to do with how well the story flowed. I never lost attention or was tempted to skip to the "good part." The whole thing was good, and I enjoyed every page. The book didn't try too hard to be "cool" like a lot of YA and chick lit seems to do, but it entertained my imagination wonderfully.
I recommend this book to everyone. It's fun, delicious, and romantic. I can't wait to read A Kiss in Time, also by Alex Flinn, about Sleeping Beauty. 5 STARS!
PS: the movie comes out next March!!! I've been looking forward to it for awhile- it looks great!
For those who have read it- what do you think about Adrian and Lindy's relationship? Since it was founded around his control, will he always have control over her (similar to Edward and Bella)? I know that he supposedly relinquished control, but something about the relationship still strikes me as being imbalanced with respect to power. I'm just curious what you think!
I"ve been wanting to read this one for awhile.I alos heard a lot fo good things about A Kiss in Time.
