[close] [bookcover:Beast|33787861]

Once upon a time, I believed in fairytales.
But then he took me.
And he taught me that life isn’t a fairytale.
He is scarred. Broken.
A dark and wild thing.
His beauty is violent and his words are cruel.
His heart is a shadowed landscape where nothing can grow.
He tells me he could never care for me, and he proves it every day.
He’s destroyed my life.
Tortured me.
And worse…
He’s trained me to beg for his affection.
This prison is a place where sunlight doesn’t reach.
He taught me that hate is born in darkness.
And then he taught me that sometimes love is too.

4.5 My Monster stars

Beautiful things were meant to be broken....

This isn't your usual damsel in distress versus captor and it definitely isn't a fairytale romance.

Right from the beginning of Beast you're thrust into the mind games,the darkness,the gripping and grittyness of the plot when Bella is stalked,persude,obsessed over then eventually taken by her captor.

Beast is a swirl of dark mind games and twisted events.

The motive? revenge for the crimes of her father, the end game, death.

Beauty and the beast with darkness! This book isn't for the faint of heart that is for sure. I didn't see some of the twist coming which I liked and some I could see. If you like some darkness with your "romance" then this is a book for you! ...more

Overall an interesting take on beauty and the beast, I liked the darkness of it, and I liked our poor beast. I didn't like a certain part I cannot tell you about because it would ruin the whole book lol. ...more
