Robin McKinley’s prose is always delightful, flowing like honey and descriptive as dawn. Her characters, too, are full of life and heart, flawed and imperfect as they are. To read her stories is to understand human nature from the view of an unrecognized hero, and to learn what it is to triumph over mediocrity.
One of the best books I’ve ever read

And certainly the best retelling of Beauty and the Beast.
Great read

It was overall pretty great but the ending left me a small bit disappointed, felt like it dragged and was padded before concluding all too quickly. Still a great book though.

Well written; a pleasure to read! Excellent and imaginative retelling of "Beauty and The Beast." The author takes the old fairy tale and reawakens it with small twists and turns that lead to a better adventure and happy resolution for Beauty and her Beast. I recommend this story to both teens and adults! A good read!
