This may be jarring to some readers but WE GET IT. YOUR MOM IS DEAD. YOU DON'T HAVE TO MENTION IT EVERY FIVE PAGES. Info dump galore, terrible chemistry, so very slow, absolutely no plot, but WOW was this a fun guilty pleasure read. had me dying of laughter with them breaking the fourth wall with everything wrong with the first two books and then also the commentary on the original (Disney) beauty and the beast. I died. Honestly, I don't think I've laughed this hard in a LONG time.

By no means a good book, but damn, did I love it.
