I wanted to like this quartet. I really did. Like many bookish girls, Beauty and the Beast is my favorite classic Disney princess tale. But to claim this is a modern retelling of any fashion is crap. The story of Carter and Aria is nothing but toxic, abusive, glorified Stockholm syndrome. As much as I wanted to like this and read it on it's entirety to really give it a fair shot, it 1000% was not my cup of tea.
