Shay Upadhyay's review of Beastly by Alex Flinn

Age: 10 Date: June 5, 2011

Why did you decide to read this book? Did a friend suggest it? Did it have an interesting cover?
I decided to read this book becasue I read another person's book reveiw for this book.

What is the story about?/What happened in the story?
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.

Who is your favorite character in the story? Why?
My favorite character is Lindy, because she loves to read, is kind, and is understanding. When the beast was a beast she didn't hold it aginst him that he was ugly.

Why did you like this story? or Why did you not like this story?
I liked this story because it was suspenseful and it made a selfish boyturn 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 t, 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.
