Review Detail

Reader reviewed by melissa

i honestly had no idea that this was a modern re-telling of 'Beauty and the Beast' until i started picturing the movie in my head. then all the talk of vanity and appearances made sense. I thought that the author did an excellent job of modernizing the story to fit today's teens and I was both laughing and feeling very sad and frustrated with Kyle/Adrian. The instant messaging really broke it up well and gave it that extra fairy tale twist with lots of charm. it was funny becase in my head i'm wondering why belle isn't texting back and realize oh wait disney didn't add cell phones. i found it to be enjoyable for the kid in everyone and shows that some people may think they outgrow disney, but they don't.
