Finally read this. Why did I wait so long? This is probably my favorite retelling of Beauty and the Beast ever!

Judy Hudgins

Another retelling of Beauty and the Beast....can there ever be too many. And other version by Robin McKinley. As the title suggests, this telling relies heavily on the rose theme and Beauty's affinity with roses. If you are a fan of the Beauty and the Beast, this is a must read.

"It is the heart of this place, and it is dying," says the Beast. And it is true; the center of the Beast's palace, the glittering glasshouse that brings Beauty both comfort and delight in her strange new environment, is filled with leafless brown rosebushes. But deep within this enchanted world, new life, at once subtle and strong, is about to awaken. Twenty years ago Robin McKinley enthralled readers with the power of Beauty. Now this extraordinarily gifted novelist retells the story of Beauty and the Beast again--but in a totally new way, with fresh perspective, ingenuity, and mature insight. In Rose Daughter she has written her finest and most deeply felt work, a compelling, richly imagined, and haunting exploration of the transformative power of love.
