The Beast's Heart

 Audiobook on Audible 

Purchased during a summer $5 sale. 

As I have mentioned in previous reviews, I love a good Beauty and the Beast story. This is a version I have never read before and unique on it's own. The title of the book very much matches what the this version is about. 

This is told from the perspective of the Beast. I love this as we always wonder how he was feeling about becoming a Beast, Belle, and the end. This is an in depth look at everything the Beast went through. It explains life before he was cursed, the hundreds of years after he was cursed long before Beauty ever arrived on the scene. It's rather stunning to see how he has to find himself again and then how Beauty ends up in his life. 

Think it can't get any better? Oh, yes it can! Ever wondered what life was like after he changed back to a human and they got married? This gives us an ending we can believe and relate. Honestly, by the end I can say this book touched my heart. 

For those that listen to the audiobook version, the male narrator is a fantastic Beast. Some may argue that he sounds older than he should but let's keep this in perspective. The Beast is like a thousand years old so the voice really does fit, even though out typical version we know time has past but never get to experience it, until now.
