Beastly

This book, titled Beastly, gives a new amusing twist to the classic tail of beauty and the beast. By involving other classic tails indirectly through online chatting in the book the author (who i currently don't remember the name of) causes the book, not to have the expected old fashioned feel, has one that is modern and brings life to a story that is often seen as dark. In addition instead of having the whole story told from "beauty's" view you get the story from the beasts view, giving you insight to why the beast is the way he is. the reader can really connect with both beast and beauty, as well as some of the other charitures that crop up throughout the story, allowing this to be a quick and captivating read.
