I enjoyed book one and I really appreciated this one as well. It was funny, entertaining, well-paced and well-written so it checked all my boxes. My expectations were met and I left this one quite satisfied.

Delightfully fun. I loved these characters in Charming, and I love how they have grown in Beast. The story was slightly predictable, but only in the best ways. And one anticipates some predictablity with fairytale retellings. It is part of the joy. Recognizing and old friend, and then noticing how they have changed. Will be recommending strongly.
