I am a big fan of Geekerella and enjoyed The Princess and the Fangirl which probably means I was more likely to enjoy this one than the average person. As they start working together they realize that maybe there is something between them that was not there before.Ĭritical Evaluation: I read this book in one sitting and stayed up late to finish it which is truly the highest praise I can give a book. Too bad Vance is a jerk and nothing like the cosplayer of his character she met. The thing is, Vance is in the Starfield movies, and Rosie is a big fan of the show and the movies and loves Vance’s character. As punishment, Rosie and Vance have to work together to organize an old library. Rosie and Vance accidentally meet due to an incident involving a dog running away and a very rare book getting destroyed. Of course this happens to be Rosie’s small town. After a car accident that is rooted in a misunderstanding makes him look like he is breaking up a relationship, he is “banished” to a small down to allow his image to recover. Meanwhile, Vance Reigns, was born and raised in Hollywood and fits many of the stereotypes that entails. She desperately misses her mom who passed away and wants that grief to go away. She is tired of her small town and is stuck with her college admission’s essay. She is pining for a moment she had with a cosplayer at last year’s ExcelsiCon.
We follow Rosie Thorne who loves villains and misunderstood characters. Bookish and the Beast is a loose and modern retelling of Beauty and the Beast. Each book in the series takes a popular fairy tale and makes it nerdy. Plot: This is the third book in Poston’s “Once Upon a Con” series, but all three books can be read as standalone novels. But, both Geekerella and The Princess and the Fangirl were popular and recognized. Reading Level: 14- 17 (Barnes & Noble), 12 – 18 (Kirkus)Īwards/Honors: This book has not been released yet and I read an ARC copy, thanks to the publisher. Genre(s): Retelling, Realistic Fiction, Romance
