It had nice nods to the original tale, but went in its own direction. The moments of slow reflection and fast action balanced out nicely, and made for a very fun escape read. ( ) T. Kingfisher makes this world a better place, I am sure of it. How about a retelling of Beauty and the Beast that is cozy, creepy, romantic, and very-very-very funny? Grab a copy, why don’t you… :))) Bryony has a gardening obsession and goes to a very happy place at the sight of huge library. Yes, Bryony, it’s been lovely to get to know you. Both you and the Beast are absolutely adorable, brave and hilarious. The reader will also want to bang your heads together, as in “Are you blind or something? You are made for each other!” It’s the Beast, though, and Bryony has a regular human head, so it might not be such a good idea. I want to quote a great many things, but will limit myself to just a few: [Things happen when Bryony sees the Beast for the first time.] “It’s not right that I am going to be both dead and mortified”, she told the Beast. “Either kill me now or give me a change of underwear.” -------------------- “I did bring seeds”, she admitted. “But some of these plants are my friends. I wasn’t going to just leave them.” She ruffled her fingers through the lavender. “Oh, good,” said the Beast drily. “Here I was afraid that I had kidnapped a sane person by mistake.” geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Bryony and her sisters have come down in the world. Their merchant father died trying to reclaim his fortune and left them to eke out a living in a village far from their home in the city. But when Bryony is caught in a snowstorm and takes refuge in an abandoned manor, she stumbles into a house full of dark enchantments. Is the Beast that lives there her captor or a fellow prisoner? Is the house her enemy or her ally? And why are roses blooming out of season in the courtyard? Armed only with gardening shears and her wits, Bryony must untangle the secrets of the house before she-or the Beast-are swallowed by them. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
