Oh wow, what a nice surprise this book was! 

After seeing so much about it online, I got curious and decided to get my hands on it to give it a try: and I was right to do so! 

It did not take me too long to get pulled deep into the story and to get intrigued by the plot. I really like seeing how Jak and Marius got to interact with each other and learn more about their stories.

It was an interesting twist on the Beauty and the Beast tale: the magic aspect of it kept me intrigued as to how it would all turn out. But what I liked most was to learn more about Marius, even if I am still left wishing we got more depth on his past.

In short, this was a nice read that I finished in a couple of hours and would gladly pick up again to read again! Easy to understand and to get into!
