I read Fairest of All, and remember enjoying. So far, I'm on page 47 and want to claw my eyes out. I can't stand this retelling, it sounds fake and like it's trying too hard to be dramatic & different. 
 I'm going to finish it because it's short and I had hopes. Beauty & the Beast is one of my favorite fairy tales and I love a lot of retellings. I have to make clear that I know the Disney animated movie is a retelling, I don't take it as the original.
