Book Divas (227 KP) rated Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book in Books

Dec 12, 2017

I stretched this read as far as I could because I simply didn't want it to end. Getting lost within the pages was simply beautiful. As I read this well written storyline, I could hear the characters as if they were sitting right next to be telling me the story.

Whether you are a fan of Beauty and the Beast or simply just fairy tales then this book is a beautiful treasure that you will cherish for years and years to come.

"I listened to it for years and I found myself singing songs from it by default all the time. All the time. And it's something about his delivery. My friend John pointed out probably 20 years ago that he sings like he plays trumpet, not the other way around. It betrays his sensitive delicate self. Somebody who would go hide himself in something as insidious as heroin. Yeah, and just his big fat gentle beating heat – never far from me, I love it."

Book Favorite

"I enjoy reading epic stories from ancient history and in recent years have been reading abridged versions aloud to my kids. This epic poem was found on a series of ancient tablets from Mesopotamia written down over 4,000 years ago, and involves the central character Gilgamesh, an excessive and oppressive leader, and his arduous journey in pursuit of the secrets of immortality. His character evolves through his personal voyage towards accepting death, and you encounter so many tales that you recognize from history."
