Book Review: Disney: Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book

Disney Beauty and the Beast: Los in a Book by Jennifer Donnelly, Disney Press, Los Angeles, 2017.

Here is a book that takes a more detailed look at Belle's love for books, and much like a Jane Austen book, explores how a love for books; when it becomes fanatical, can have negative consequences.  In this case, death is vying for Belle, and does this with the help of a book.  In this book, the characters are alive; however they are not what they seem to be.  However, Belle discovers this too late, but how can she ever get back to the Beast.  This story takes place after the wolf attack and before the ballroom dance.  
The new movie, and the old, are so magical, there is not much that could live up to that.  This book does not quite have the same magic but is enjoyable.
