* I got this book for review from the publisher for my honest thoughts*

I really enjoyed this beauty and the beast retelling. I found this book to be such a rich read with a strong world building but also very strong characters that I felt reflected the nature of these characters from the pervious myths. I was equally invested in both POVs. I also enjoyed the banter between all characters and also the representation that was given to characters with cerbal palsy. I normally found this book to fast pace and engaging but the middle of the book had a some slow moment and the ending I felt was a tad rushed, I am excited for book 2!
