sgall75 's review for:
The Beast and the Bethany
by Jack Meggitt-Phillips
Thanks to #netgalley for the chance to read this.
This is one of the best children's books I've read in a while. Dorian Gray meets Roald Dahl meets Lemmony Snickett.
The characters are wonderfully dark and flawed. 511 year old Ebenezer Tweezer has a beast that lives in his attic and "rewards" him for bringing the beast exciting meals.
Hence the entrance of "The Bethany"...the naughtiest child in the orphanage, hell bent on causing mischief wherever she goes.
It's both funny and heart-warming and deliciously dark.
