Beauty's Beast by S.T. Lynn

fast-paced

3.0

This is a hard review to write. I think that this book could have been helped by being longer because too much of it sped by. I wished we had more time to get to know the characters and their motivations. I think the author did this because it is a retelling of Beauty and the Beast and they were hoping that we could take our knowledge of that and use it here instead of developing it more. The author definitely took much of the original tale, like character names (even of the smaller side characters) and even mannerisms (they are constantly being referred to as singing like in the Disney film). I wish those elements weren't so similar. Because we then have a more interesting Belle and Beast. I really just wished we had more development of plot and conflict.
