[I received a copy of this book through NetGalley, in exchange for an honest review.]I struggled a little to get into this book, and I admit that I skimmed over a few parts, but in the end, while clearly not-mind blowing, it was entertaining enough.The dynamics between Mia and Jules is, overall, one...

1.5 stars. Audiobook. Narration 2.5 stars- Quick thought: A bad remake of Indiana Jones and The temple of Doom. Long, long and mostly boring inner dialog that made me tune out. This was a book where I just wanted the characters to stop talking, yeh not good. The female MC was so irritating, she had...

I was going to read a retelling of Sleepy Hollow, but this one caught my eye. Shiny! A nice change to the retelling of Beauty and the Beast. The original was never one of my favorite fairy tales - too syrupy, although part of that might be influence of Disney. In my opinion they made them fun, bu...

Wow what a great retelling of Beauty and the Beast. The flow was a bit of a problem throughout. However, Spooner did such as great job with character development that it didn’t bother me. I also loved that the curse in This story was really about want and desire. I thought that Yeva and the Beast we...

I originally received a copy of this book for review from Edelweiss, but I have listened to the audiobook for the purposes of this review. Marketed as a retelling of Beauty and the Beast, which is only my favourite fairytale, no big deal, starring a girl in a cloak on the cover and with a title li...

3.0 stars...I was so looking forward to this book because I can't pass up an archaeological treasure hunt in space and I'm a huge fan of the Illuminae series with both Kaufmann and Kristoff but I have to say I was very disappointed with the repetitiveness in the writing! Omg the same things were rep...

I enjoyed this retelling so much, and the book cover is stunning! Not the temporary cover pictured in this post, but the actual finished cover. Yeva comes from a wealthy family. She lives with her widowed father and two sisters. Her relationship with her family is beautiful. They care very much for ...

I liken this book to roller coaster of the worst kind. One where it takes literal hours to slowly, slowly, inch up to the top of that first hill, only to find out that the drop on the other side is over in 3 or 4 seconds. Gah. Good things: * Beauty is actually a badass here. She's strong, capable,...
