  <default_description>&lt;p&gt; Talia fell under a spell . . . . Jack broke the curse. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; I was told to beware the accursed spindle, but it was so enchanting, so hypnotic. . . . &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; I was looking for a little adventure the day I ditched my tour group. But finding a comatose town, with a hot-looking chick asleep in it, was so not what I had in mind. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; I awakened in the same place but in another time&#8212;to a stranger's soft kiss. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; I couldn't help kissing her. Sometimes you just have to kiss someone. I didn't know this would happen. &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Now I am in dire trouble because my father, the king, says I have brought ruin upon our country. I have no choice but to run away with this commoner! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Now I'm stuck with a bratty princess and a trunk full of her jewels. . . . The good news: My parents will freak! &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; Think you have dating issues? Try locking lips with a snoozing stunner who turns out to be 316 years old. Can a kiss transcend all&#8212;even time? &lt;/p&gt;</default_description>

In this case its 'Sleeping Beauty' and I definitely feel less of a Disney vibe from this (for some reason Beastly put me in mind of the Disney Beauty and the Beast, not the fairy tale itself).

    <body><![CDATA[I stopped reading <em>A Kiss in Time</em> after 160 pages. <br/><br/>What could go wrong? I had high expectations because <em>Beastly</em> has been my favourite fairytale retelling so far. <br/><br/>1. In my opinion <em>A Kiss in Time</em> is boring. The setting is promising, but soon the air is out of the balloon. Evil f...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74808042">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Oh, fairy tale re-dos for teens.  So much of the beauty of the fairy tale setting is lost when you add in iPods and Old Navy t-shirts and slang.  Also I hated the two main characters for a good half - 2/3 of the book. <br/><br/>But on the other hand, the last third of the book was pretty good.

    <body><![CDATA[I adore this book. It's hilarious, for one thing. Furthermore, it's the kind of book that hooks you in with the first page. The two person narrative between Talia and Jack was brilliantly done, and made the character development for both characters much stronger; Plus, it made the relationship betwe...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/58789186">more...</a>]]></body>

I just thought it was a story of a girl who had been cursed to sleep until true loves kiss.  Now that I think about it, that <em>is</em> Sleeping Beauty.

    <body><![CDATA[I would say this was between a 3.5 and a 4 - so I just erred on the side of 4. :-) It was a really fun, inventive retelling of Sleeping Beauty. I liked it a lot - the only thing from giving it a more glowing report was I really didn't like either main character for the first 1/3 of the book!
