Review of 'Beastly (Beastly, #1; Kendra Chronicles, #1)' on 'Goodreads'

3 stars

Beastly is easy to read and quite a bit of fun. The writing is not outstanding but I enjoyed it anyway. It was an interesting take on an old tale, one that I think should probably be more popular. Of course we all know how it will end but I still didn't want to put it down until I'd finished!
