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.

a new interesting twist on a famous classic

a new interesting twist on a famous classic. a dragon as the beast and a magical princess... um, ok...

Splendid take on Beauty and the Beast

This is a must read beautiful take on Beauty and the Beast. I usually find myself going through and nitpicking every little thing, but I have to say as I was listening to this I found myself countless times just sitting there lost in the story; to my utter surprise. Miss Savage did a splendid job taking the traditional Beauty and the Beast story and giving it a Twist that everyone is going to be sucked into. Many times I see people trying to rewrite a classic story and failing because they try to stay to close to the main storyline. Not only did Miss Savage keep the key elements to Beauty and the Beast but gave it such a different take it felt like a new story. Doing something like this can be the hardest thing for a writer and she pulled it off with extreme success.
If I'm being completely honest I feel like this story was more of a success then the new Beauty and the Beast live action film. That's a prime example of saying to closest storyline where everyone seems to be bored with it halfway through.
The story kept me on my toes wanting to know what happened next and for somebody like me to be able to get sucked into a story means that the author did a fantastic job. This is a must-read book. So sit back, relax and be ready to be sucked into Miss Savages new world.
