Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book

De: Jennifer Donnelly

Narrado por: Jenna Augen

Hidden in the Beast's library is a very mysterious book. Belle is about to discover it and visit a glittering new world. But is everything in that world what it seems? And will Belle be able to find her way home? Or will the story take hold of her - and never let her go?

Smart, bookish Belle, a captive in the Beast's castle, has become accustomed to her new home and has befriended its inhabitants. When she comes upon Nevermore, an enchanted book unlike anything else she has seen in the castle, Belle finds herself pulled into its pages and transported to a world of glamour and intrigue. The adventures Belle has always imagined, the dreams she was forced to give up when she became a prisoner, seem within reach again.

The charming and mysterious characters Belle meets within the pages of Nevermore offer her sparkling conversation, a life of dazzling Parisian luxury, and even a reunion she never thought possible. Here Belle can have everything she has ever wished for. But what about her friends in the Beast's castle? Can Belle trust her new companions inside the pages of Nevermore? Is Nevermore's world even real? Belle must uncover the truth about the book before she loses herself in it forever.

the audiobook is very good

the Audio Book is very well done and very good for listeners to listen to and enjoy following along with it.

Great story that doesn’t fit with the movie

This is honestly a very nice story, it’s charming and cute and if it was to be standalone it would be much better but it doesn’t make sense as part of The beauty and the beast.

My main problem is how dumb and gullible Belle is in the story. This seems like it was pretty heavily produced for little girls so it stops Belle of most of her identity and she’s just a plain girl. Belle is supposed to be smart and somewhat well read (in the live action she doesn’t have many book to read from, but she knows of them) and yet is unaware of the concept of lies?

This story really reduces how smart and ingenuous Belle is, it is the only bad thing about it though.

Enchanting addition

I did love the story and being back in Belle's world. However, I was hoping there would be new information. I didn't realize it was going to take place within the original story. I would have liked to get fresh ideas and such. However, it was enchanting and engaging despite that.

If you were left wanting a little more... you'll find it here!

If you were left wanting a little more after seeing Beauty and the Beast in theaters... you'll find it here!

The only draw back is it took me a few chapter to feel immersed in the story, but once your drawn into the magic you'll never want to leave. The title does the book justice, I was truly lost in a book!

This book met every Disney expectation, well done!

I never wanted it to end. I loved nevermore

this book is a 100 time better than the movies. it is magical, it takes you on an amazing adventure, it is enticing and creative. and the narrator is the best. I love the way she read the book. this book is one of my favorites. like really favorites!!!

A good spin within the main Beauty and the Beast.

The story was very well written. My only complaint would be that the first run of chapters took a very long time in setting up the main focus of this one. It could have been set up with two chapters instead of ten or so.

Best Imaginary Story

Best imaginary storyline. made me feel like I was in the book living the story. Beautifully written and narration. Would highly recommend.

Love It!!

I loved the story so much, it was like I was in the book! I also like how Jenna Augean read the story, her accent made the story come to life!!!!🦄

very good

Better than what I thought it would be beauty and the beast is my favorite book

Amazing original story!!!

Everything that I expected and more from Disney's Belle happened in this book.
It has darker themes at times but are dealt with care.
