Ring My Belle

So this weekend I finished “A Curse of Beasts and Magic” by Jeaniene Frost, the first in her new “Beautiful and Beastly” series that I’d preordered as soon as it was announced. I hadn’t had a chance to sit down and read it until now. The wait was worth it. A modern take on “Beauty and the Beast,” I enjoyed this new work of hers immensely! I’m already drooling in anticipation of the next book, and thanks to ACBM, I have a new favorite phrase: “chicken-fried fucked.” :) I’ve long been a fan of Frost’s previous works, specifically the “Night Huntress” series and its wider universe additions. I had first found a review for “Once Burned” while tumbling down a rabbit hole looking up something about Vlad Tepes. I fell in LOVE with the story and her characters, buying each next book after devouring the previous. (Cat and Bones are near and dear to my heart, but I will forever be team Leila and Vlad! ♥) “Night Huntress” and company are what I consider “comfort reads” — I read and re-read them…
