Voice horrible

Love the story !!
But the voice was all wrong for this !!!
Her ascent was horrible I almost couldn’t listen to her

Perfect listen for a Modest Mom

I love a good spin on the classic fairy tail stories. This was just the right amount of "Adult". It was more about the story than the intimacy but intimacy was put in at the right times. I'm very excited to continue with the other versions of the classic fairy tales I grew up with.

Was a fun listen

This started out strong but it almost felt rushed towards the end. I would have loved a more intense battle to round off the story. Overall, it was a great listen and a beautiful take on one of my favorite stories.

Average

It was an average book and performance in my opinion. The story seemed to lack real depth but was a unique spin to the old fairy tale.

A decent Beauty and the Beast retelling

As I make my way through a slew of fairytale retellings (mostly batb) I become more critical. This was a VERY good adult retelling. It isn't the BEST I've come across but it was good nonetheless. Vivienne Savage's spin on this tale and the type of "beast" the protagonist encounters is a unique and exciting approach to the story and I loved it!

Great story

An intriguing farietale. The heroin is genuine and a interesting character. It is fun to find new twists around each corner.

Entertaining fantasy

This was a new twist to the beauty and the beast story. Very fun to read

great story

I enjoyed the book. I liked that the story wasnt ypur traditional "disney-esque" telling. The way the writer made the characters come to life was oerfect. I could really visualize her story.

Who's a beast?

I love this story of Beauty and the Beast. but who's the real beast? Is it a dragon who takes revenge for the death of his family or a spoiled greedy man who would rape a woman? A man who thinks his title gives him an entitlement to act without thought or mercy.

Good for Anastasia! She is brave enough to fight for herself. Brave enough to believe in what's right and just. May she and king Alastair live forever.

Great production! loved the accents of Vivianne Savage and Shoshana Frank.
