Ramona Popa a dat nota:

Am citit aceasta carte in 2 zile si m-a atras foarte mult universul magic si ideea de reinterpretare a autoarei. Este o carte magica, o carte cu personaje care se intalnesc intr-un context special si au nevoie unul de altul pentru a supravietui si pentru a rupe un blestem. O super reinterpretare dupa "Frumoasa si Bestia" si stiu sigur ca o sa va incante.

Firru . a dat nota:

A solid Beauty and the Beast retelling with well-developed characters and relationships. Harper is a great main character because she has a realistic blend of strength and doubtfulness and a good head on her shoulders that makes her worthy of being a fantasy heroine. Rhen’s inner conflicts make him his own developed character rather than just a love interest. Grey, despite being a supporting character, is also just as likable (arguably more so). I enjoyed reading about the relationships between the trio, and the slow burn of the romance is realistic (including the question of whether it’s actually “love”). I also enjoyed the political tension throughout the book, which helped add meat to the story and ground it in reality with actual stakes. The reason why I am not rating it 5 stars is because despite the great characters, I found the story to be quite predictable because of how straightforward the retelling was, and there were missed opportunities to make the story more unique and subversive.

Caracteristici

Two great, distinct voices: Brigid is a master at writing both male and female perspectives, as seen in Letters to the Lost. Prince Rhen is sympathetic and strong, and Harper is fierce despite the limitations of her cerebral palsy.

Recenzii

A Curse So Dark and Lonely has everything you'd want in a retelling of a classic fairy tale: a finely-drawn fantasy world, a heroine rarely seen in fiction, and a tortured hero with a secret. I have only one complaint: I wish the sequel were already available!
An intensely original retelling. Full of fierce new characters, wicked magic, and wondrous amounts of heart, Brigid Kemmerer doesn't just tell a story, she builds an entire world that you will never want to leave
I couldn't get this creative, suspenseful take on Beauty and the Beast out of my head
The Beauty and the Beast retelling I've been waiting for. The world Brigid has crafted is so beautifully dark, filled with wild adventure and a modern-day heroine every reader will find a bit of themselves in
Slow burning, big hearted, magical fun! I loved every minute
Heartwarming, thoughtful and romantic: Brigid Kemmerer took me on a magical journey with this dark fairytale about growing up, falling in love, and making impossible choices
This is a gripping read, driven by a powerful and original heroine

Descriere

'Everything you'd want in a retelling of a classic fairy tale' JODI PICOULT'Absolutely spellbinding' STEPHANIE GARBERFall in love, break the curse. Break the curse, save the kingdom. Prince Rhen, the heir to Emberfall, is cursed.

Forced to repeat the autumn of his eighteenth year over and over, he can only be freed by love. But at the end of each autumn he is transformed into a beast hell-bent on destruction, and after so many failed attempts, his kingdom and its people are barely holding on. Harper's life has never been easy, but she's learned to be tough enough to survive.

She won't let anything hold her back, not her cerebral palsy or her mother's deteriorating health. But when she is sucked into Rhen's world, nothing is as it seems. Powerful forces are standing against Emberfalll ...

and it will take more than a broken curse to save it from utter ruin.
