What I’m reading : Beasts and Beauty

Here are 12 dangerous tales of mystery, magic, and rebellious hearts. Each twists like a spindle to reveal truths full of warning and triumph, truths that free hearts long kept tame, truths that explore life . . . and death. 

New York Times bestselling author Soman Chainani respins old stories into fresh fairy tales for a new era and creates a world like no other.   (From publisher’s description)

Beasts and Beauty was the winner, in 2022, of the Kids’ Book Choice Award, in the “Favorite Book Cover” category (voted on by readers ages 12 to 14).
