Next, the characters in the book were great. The theme of this book was my favorite thing. “I’ve seen worse.” This is what Lindy told Kyle when he revealed his beastly self. “Just because something is beautiful doesn’t mean it’s good.” This is one of my favorite quotes that showed me love can never be ugly.
Lindy told Kyle that she had seen worse once she saw him as a beast. This novel is all about how Kyle finds love with a girl he would have never thought he could ever love, yet she is the only one who will love him as a beast. Throughout the whole novel, it was obvious that the theme was love is never ugly. Initially, the theme of this book was wonderful. This book was a little challenging to read because it was sometimes interrupted by chats between a doctor and some other beasts however, it was a great book from beginning to end. I love this book because of its theme, its characters, and its setting. She casted a spell on him that made him a beast he only had a year to find someone who would love him as a beast to break the spell. He was so conceited until he ran into some trouble with a witch that was in his English class. How would you feel if falling in love is the only thing that can turn you from a beast back to yourself? What if you only had a year to complete the task? That was exactly what Kyle Kingsbury had to do in Alex Flinn’s book, Beastly. And then, I’ll tell you how I became perfectly…BEASTLY. I’ll tell you how I used to be Kyle Kingsbury, the guy you wished you were, with money, perfect looks, and the perfect life. Why did she turn me into a beast who hides by day and prowls by night? I’ll tell you. Yes, the spell, the one the witch in my English class cast on me. And I’ll stay this way forever-ruined-unless I can break the spell.
You think I’m talking fairy tales? No way. A beast! Not quite a wolf or bear, gorilla or dog but a horrible new creature who walks upright. I’m excited to see the movie because I can tell you right now without even seeing it that it’s very different from the book.Ĭontent Rating: Medium, for swearing and crude teen humor.I am a beast. The characters were good, though, and it was fun to watch them grow. Honestly, it veered a little into the sappy and over-the-top. It went back and forth between teen-angst and old-fashioned which made it feel a little inconsistent sometimes. It was cute, fun, and entertaining, but it reminded me a lot of Disney’s version of Beauty and the Beast. And I'll stay this way forever-ruined-unless I can break the spell. You think I'm talking fairy tales? No way. Not quite wolf or bear, gorilla or dog but a horrible new creature who walks upright-a creature with fangs and claws and hair springing from every pore.
