I know this is a book from the 1700s so women being strong and fearless was a big thing, but reading this in modern day is very jarring.

This book was definitely a product of its time, and yet it is still a beautiful story so far. I wish the OG original was easier to find, as this is the translation of the second writing of Beauty and the Beast.

I've read a lot of books in my time; but I really wish this one came with a trigger warning.
I adore the characters, and I have been brought to tears by their situations more than one. My only wish from Grady Hendrix is that this came with a trigger warning about some very real-world things in this book.

If anyone is considering this book, please be aware that there is mention of pedophilia that is acted on.
