Beast by Ollie Doherty
4.0
Oh. My. Lanta.
Okay so I want to talk about this book. I have so much to say about what a BEAST this book is. A queer Beauty and the Beast retelling?! Uhhhhh yes please. Can I do it without spoilers? *whispers…. I don’t know if I can*
I was given a copy from Ollie to review and honestly I’m so sad it took me so long to finish. This was a fabulous retelling. Kept the bones of B&tB and fleshed it out with its own body entirely. I was amazed at how unique the story was while still keeping to the ideas from the original story.
So without spoilers (because apparently people don’t like those) here are my thoughts.
__________ creeps me tf out and is a skeeze.
__________ is infuriating. Their decisions are so selfish and completely on whims. Very self absorbed and probably needs to die in book 2
