Bookish and the Beast by Ashley Poston

3.0

---

Well, I read it because of the obvious nod to Beauty and the Beast, with an emphasis on books. And I was not disappointed in those 2 aspects. However, I did not really enjoy the writing. Everything felt both overwritten and incomplete at once. The plot was fun to get behind and it was nice when I realized another B&B element had been introduced. But it just isn’t very well written, IMHO. I didn’t love it. I didn’t hate it. It was just okay.
