The Beast’s past is revealed in bits and pieces of memory throughout, while Isabeau’s story and that of her family is told to him by Isabeau herself or revealed in the magic mirror as it happens. It definitely shifts the focus of the story and reorders the way you discover certain details, and it was a treat to delve so deeply into the Beast’s mind and his decisions and actions. The whole thing is so beautifully written, I absolutely fell in love with everything about it! One of my favourites for sure! (  ) vvbooklady | May 18, 2021 | I enjoyed this story. Shallcross' writing has a lyrical, fairy-tale feel to it. I liked the imagery and descriptions. It builds the emotion of the characters and the story to maximum...but it does make the story progress more slowly. If looking for a story that makes you feel all the feels...this is perfect. For those who want a more gripping, story-centric reading experience...this might not be your thing. While this book is YA appropriate, it does have some very dark topics and imagery including abuse and attempted suicide. All in all, I enjoyed this re-telling of my favorite fairy tale. The story is magical, heart-felt, emotional....and the Beast finally gets to tell things from his side! **I voluntarily read an advanced readers copy of this book from Berkley. All opinions expressed are entirely my own.** ( ) JuliW | Nov 22, 2020 | This is my true and honest review of The Beast Heart by Leife Shallcross. This was published on 3rd May 2018 This book is a retelling of Beauty and the Beast. Beauty and the Beast is one of my favourite stories and have enjoyed most adaptations of this classic tale. This was good, and I found this to be enjoyable read. Great book for YA fantasy and fairy-tale retelling lovers.
