WARNING: this book causes sleep deprevation!!! (Seriously I was up past midnight quite a few nights reading this book!)
So I recently went to Chapters with my friend and i was looking around the young adult section when I saw "Beastly" the book!It's written by Alex Flinn and boy was it good!
Its a very original story though the plot was taken from stories like Beauty and the Beast and The Huntchback of Notre Dame. It is 300 pages (not including the authors note). I enjoyed every minute. It wasn't like one of those books that are boring at the beinging and then slowly get interesting. Although there is not a lot of action there is a lot of love and reflection. Now if you are not a romantic kind of person than I don't reccomend it. BUT this is a book that is just as good for boys as it is for girls.
A Product Description according to Amazon.com
I am a beast.
A beast. Not quite wolf or bear, gorilla or dog but a horrible new creature who walks upright—a creature with fangs and claws and hair springing from every pore. I am a monster.
You think I'm talking fairy tales? No way. The place is New York City. The time is now. It's no deformity, no disease. And I'll stay this way forever—ruined—unless I can break the spell.
Yes, the spell, the one the witch in my English class cast on me. Why did she turn me into a beast who hides by day and prowls by night? I'll tell you. I'll tell you how I used to be Kyle Kingsbury, the guy you wished you were, with money, perfect looks, and the perfect life. And then, I'll tell you how I became perfectly . . . beastly.
The movie comes out March 8, 2011!!!! Can't wait!
