Jill and the Books Talk

A tale from the Beast’s perspective which told about how life was before he was transformed into the hideous beast in the story we all are familiar with - Beauty and the Beast. This book is full of surprises as Valentino creatively spun a weblike relationship between characters that you could never imagine. One must be a Disney fan to fully appreciate and understand the role of some characters who seemed to have magically appeared from other Disney stories. Truly an entertaining story for someone who has watched the movie but might be confusing for someone who has no background on Beauty and the Beast and Valentino’s Fairest of All book.

This is the untold story of Snow White's wicked stepmother before she became a vindictive old hag.  The author spun a great story about how a once kind-hearted girl transformed into a heartless witch as a result of life's cruelty and injustices. Surprisingly left a dull ache in my heart after reading the novel. Truly a must read for fairy tale lovers like me.
