"Beastly" by Alex Flynn. You know the story. Beauty's father picks a rose. The beast forces him to bring his daughter to the enchanted castle. Romance follows. Beast becomes prince once again.
But what if the Beast was a 15 year old high school sophomore? Who just happens to insult the wrong girl? And joins an internet chat group to discuss his problems? Meet Kyle Kingsbury, and join him in his quest to undo the curse he so richly deserves.
This tale is funny, poignant and enjoyable. It's just romantic enough, but not sappy. Kyle's narrative is light and quick, never dull. And the happy ending has just enough of a quirky twist to make you laugh. Enjoy!
