I absolutely LOVED this book! I love a good beauty and the beast retelling, but this was so much more. gender roles were reversed, making a little more unique. The curse was a little different. the story slowly reveals its truths and secrets. it's not about loving another but about truly loving oneself and accepting all your emotions. such a great message.
