4.0
Although too long, this was an interesting and unusual retelling of Beauty and the Beast — rich with its own world and themes beyond the original tale.
It's not going to be a favorite — I had a hard time suspending my disbelief for some of the setting and scenes, and its length is a serious detriment to this book's rereadability, but I enjoyed it well enough.
