Beautiful Beautiful by Heidi Garrett
4.0
I got a free copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
The morals of this story would be 'Don't judge a book by the cover' or 'It's not gold all that shines'. In this retelling of the fairy tale "Beautiful", by Hans Christian Andersen, we see how Kerrin Mayham tries to teach her daughter life lessons about beauty and people character. The story was beautifully crafted, with flashbacks to an earlier time in Kerrin's life, when she was a successful film director, but not too clever in love matters. Beauty can blind our senses, and we must beware of that. I loved reading this story, but the ending was a bit predictable for me.
Interesting retelling of a very well-known fairy tale that will keep you turning the pages until the very end.
