I wouldn't necessarily classify this as a horror although there is gore. The plot itself feels a lot like two stories of opposites fighting an unending battle and so it does make the MC story about struggling to finally be the victor.

4.0

So what if she’s the Devil? At least the Devil has a JOB. At least she’s ACTIVE in the COMMUNITY!

Seriously, this book had me stressed since before the supernatural things even started happening. This book was an excellent insight at the elitist and cutthroat world that is ballet. This book was filled with terrible characters and I LOVED IT!!! This was a villain origin story in which ambition may have gotten the best of Laure, desperate to climb to the top, to the point where she was willing to sacrifice her own soul (and even worse, her ability to dance!). I loved seeing everyone who was horrible to Laure get what they deserved, and watching Laure slowly become corrupted by her newfound powers. My only complaint would be the pacing, which was slow at times, but I’m really excited to see how the story escalates in the next book!

 I Feed Her to the Beast and the Beast Is Me, takes an unflinching look at ambitious young women in a highly competitive field and the hellish lengths to which they will go to achieve their dreams. Recommended to anyone who likes ballet, monsters, and  morally gray female characters who embrace their dark sides.
