===="I am allowing the world to see you as you truly are, a beast." Beastly by Alex Flinn tells about Kyle Kingsbury, the "perfect" teenage boy, and how he soon realizes that he isn't so perfect after all. He is cursed to live as an ugly beast for two years and to break his spell, he must find a girl that will love him for his personality and hideousness. I loved this book because of the way Alex Flinn described Kyle's feelings. Another thing I liked about this book is that I couldn't put the book down, even though I've heard the story of "Beauty and the Beast" over and over again. I would recommend this book to anyone that loves a great heartbreaking love story with a happily ever after ending.====

====The best part about this book is when Lindy, Kyle's/Adrian's prisoner, decides to leave him to go back to her slowly dying father. I think this part is the best because you can tell how much they have fallen in love for each other. She has so much trust in the beast that she doesn't want to leave him, but she has no choice. She leaves him broken hearted. At one point, I cried because it was so sad. While she's leaving him, Alex Flinn was describing the feelings Adrian was having. His feelings were, "I wanted to say was //I love you.//" After that happened, I wanted to know more and more, so I didn't put the book down.====

====Kyle Kingsbury is a rich, snobby boy with charming looks. He believes he has it all in his life. But does he really? Kyle's life was perfect. His father was a famous news reporter that made millions. Kyle basically lived in a mansion and he was dating the prettiest girl at school. He had everything, but one night changed it all. He humiliated the outcast of the school, Kendra. Kyle thought Kendra was just a nobody. But she had all the powers in the world to make him hideous, because she was the witch that transformed him into a hariy beast. After he learns that everyone wanted him for his looks, he then changes his personality in order to break his spell. In the time he is changing his personality, he wanted to renamed himself because he believes that Adrian King's (his new name) personality is different than the personality of Kyle Kingsbury.====

====I think this book is a great version of "Beauty and the Beast". It's good because there are so many feelings into this book that teenagers can relate too. Everyone has loved and lost and this is exactly how Adrian feels about Lindy. This book is great for anyone that likes a book that would make you cry. Also, if you like moderately paced books then this is for you. "Beastly" has a ton of details and has a lot of teenage drama going on. But in the end, you will see how amazing this book is.====

====I recommend this book to everyone. Especially to people that like love stories that will make you cry. "Beastly" by Alex Flin is full of feelings, sacrifices, and lots of love. I think this book is more of a woman's book than a man's book, but if men are interested in love stories then why not?====
