The story is about a popular boy who thinks he is really cool and hansdsome. For a school dance he asks a very popular girl to go with him. She obviously says yeas because he is cool. Then he asks what somebody like him would call a 'nobody', someone who is not cool. She says yes as well. At the dance when he shows up with the popular girl she gets mad and casts a spell on him because she is a witch. He got turned into a beast and he has to find a true and they have to kiss before he can turn human again. If he can't do that in the 2 years then he will remain a beast forever.

I liked this story because it was suspenseful and it made a selfish bot turn into a kind man.
Other thoughts or feelings about this story? Anything else to add?: 
I would reccomend this story to 12+ but I did like it, but for some people this might not be their reading level. If it isn't your reading level but you still want to read it then I would reccomend reading it slowly.

Why did you decide to read this book? Did a friend suggest it? Did it have an interesting cover?: 
In school we have an advanced reading group that I'm in, and our next book was Beastly. All the boys were groaning, but every single one of us (13 people) got it done in one night! It was an excellent story, but the cover didn't go with the book at all. The guy, Kyle Kingsbury, doesn't have tattoos, and the girl has orange hair, not black.
What is the story about?/What happened in the story?: 
The book was Beauty and The Beast with a twist, and it wasn't all little kiddy either.
Why did you like this story? or Why did you not like this story?: 
I absolutely loved this book, and highly recommend it.
Other thoughts or feelings about this story? Anything else to add?: 
If you need something to read, this is it!
