LeftSideCut (3776 KP) rated Beauty and the Beast (1991) in Movies
Nov 22, 2020
Beauty and the Beast is an example of animated Disney at the top of their game, and stands proudly amongst the string of high quality outputs from Disney during the tail end of the 80s and through the 90s.
The aesthetic is quintessential Disney fairytale material, alternating between the bright and colourful un-named village that Belle lives in, to the dark and gothic castle where The Beast resides. The animation is wonderful, especially when it comes to characters. Characters such as Cogsworth, Lumiere, and Mrs. Potts are bought to life in such a vibrant manner, it's another argument for why the live action adaptions will never quite capture the same magic, and the likes of Belle, The Beast, and Gaston are memorable and visually iconic Disney inhabitants.
The story is straight down the middle for this kind of thing, but it's crowd pleasing, heart warming, with a perfect helping of melancholy, a formula that has always been Disney's bread and butter along with catchy songs. I struggle to get on board with musicals for the most part but some of the music demonstrated here is superbly written and occasionally beautiful.
Beauty & The Beast is classic Disney through and through. It's truly timeless and will be enjoyed for generations to come.

Rachel P (2 KP) rated A Court of Thorns and Roses in Books
Jan 4, 2018
I loved this book. It is a re-telling of Beauty and the Beast which started a little slow, but if you think about the classic BATB story, it's somewhat slow in the beginning as well. Feyre is human and is taken to a faerie world where she meets Tamlin and works throughout the last half of the book to free him and his "village" from a curse. At the end of the book, the author tied in many elements from the beginning of the book that seemed boring and unimportant at the time, which left me amazed and wanting more.

Fantastic Read
I'm not quite sure why this book has received the ratings it has but that's the beauty of having an opinion. With that being said I will now share my thoughts and start my review by saying that I enjoyed reading this. I found the characters easy to relate to and able to see and experience the differences on each one. The author's writing made this retelling a fantastic read for me. -YA/NA Book Divas

A piece of literary beauty.
What can I say to describe a book that had me entranced from the first to the last page? It made me laugh, it had my holding my breath with anticipation, and it made me shove the book under my husbands and children’s noses to show them the meandering words of Dead Papa Toothwort as they crawled across the page. It’s just a glorious book!
I marvel at the mind of someone who can write something as original and beautiful as this - it’s poetry in prose form, and I loved reading every word.

Mar 15, 2018
This is an incredibly moving piece of fiction that anyone who loves reading owes it to themselves to check out. Telling the story of a young German boy and a young, blind French girl over the course of World War II; Anthony Doerr weaves together themes of the horrors of war, the love of one's family, and the beauty that exists in the world around us and within ourselves. The story moves forward at a quick pace and all of the characters will remain with you long after the story is over. Simply put: this is a beautiful book.

Restores your faith in humanity
A gentle story that deals with some hard issues. The central characters are beautifully created and although you don’t immediately love Eleanor, by chapter 5 you want to rent her your spare room.
She lives her life guarded, hurt and stuck in her routines. She has no interest in the lives of others and struggles to understand the behaviours of her colleagues, but her weekends are devastatingly lonely.
An unusual series of events opens Eleanor’s eyes to lives of those around her and to the beauty of letting others in to your world.
