I wanted to like this book but it wasn’t for me. I saw the tv serie and I absolutely loved it, so I was sooo excited to read the books (because usually they’re better then the serie or the movie right?), but I found this book too slow for me. The real action it’s just a scene of two pages at almost the end of the book! The Beast, the main villain, appears just two time and that’s it?! What? Where are the battles?! 
I wanted more action and less Q thinking about Alice’s perfect breasts! 
Maybe one day I’ll continue the other two books, but for now I’ll stop to this one.
