At the Buckeston Academy High School, the wealthy, arrogant, narcissistic, and bigoted Kyle Kingson is a student who does not respect his classmates. When Kyle is elected representative of the students, he plays a prank on the outcast Kendra, who has a reputation as a witch: he invites her to a party and humiliates her in front of their classmates. However, Kendra curses him with a spell that makes Kyle as ugly as his soul. Further, she tells him that if he does not find anyone who loves him within a year, he will be doomed to that appearance forever. When Kyle's father, Rob Kingson, sees him, he takes Kyle to specialists but the doctors do not know what to do, so Rob hides Kyle in an apartment with a maid and a blind tutor. When Kyle sees his mate Lindy on the streets, he saves her from a dangerous drug dealer and he brings her to his apartment to protect her. Now his only hope is that Lindy will fall in love with him.

I loved the book, and I'm undecided on the movie...I own the movie, and have only watched it once. Maybe I'll re-watch it and have a better decision.

I am guilty of not reading the book first.

have you read it though? Did you like the movie?

I enjoyed the movie and I have not read it yet. That book and cruel beauty keep slipping through my grasp. I went to the store to buy them today they had one copy each yesterday and today none. sad face.

I loved Cruel Beauty...some people don't like it because of the complex world building....I love it.

I want them both badly because of being Beauty and the Beast retellings. I love the fairy tale so much.

Yeah, it's in my top disney movies.

See this is why we get along so great. Same taste.lol. I love the Disney movie and I am excited for the new live action.
