But I prefer this version, from totally ordinary wealth to scrappy bootstrap-pulling carpentry, to magical love story...all the parts work for me, for different reasons. Though part three is definitely the most flashy fun. :)Elizabeth Ryannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12706539983177924875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049843947098881146.post-21473900289450284652010-10-21T15:00:54.585-04:002010-10-21T15:00:54.585-04:00LOL!

I am glad I read the whole book, but the first two parts weren't necessary as I was ready to dive into the meeting of Beauty and the Beast. But since the book was titled Beauty, I guess that is why we got more on her story.Kelly Breakeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07170230808730463954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3049843947098881146.post-57134697462662746672010-10-21T11:02:16.354-04:002010-10-21T11:02:16.354-04:00Hmmm.
