200 year old kidnapper manages to convince victim (through black mail) to love him. Why was it not mentioned as to why he was cursed? What did he do?!!??
Such a great re-telling, I felt I got to know Beauty so much more intimately

Good to read in conjunction with "Rose Daughter" for comparing the two. Much more of the library and invisible servants type of Beauty and the Beast retelling. Not sure about how I feel about Beauty's character, but she's alright. Love Greatheart.
Beautiful retelling of Beauty & The Beast. Robin McKinley transports the reader to another world, one that is enchanted......
I loved this book! I don't know why I haven't read it before. I even suggested to my son that he read it, but he turned away just from the title - until I started telling him about it. Now he wants to read it, but I'm sure it will be read at home where no one can see!
