Have you ever been reading a book, and just had to stop, breathe, and just sit and think about how beautiful what you just read was? I had to do that multiple times in this book. This is not just another Beauty and the Beast retelling. This is a deep look into emotions, how they affect us, and what can go wrong when we let them take over. And it was just so good. I can't seem to put into words how amazing this book was.
