Title: Beastly
Author: Alex Flinn
KDL Description:
Having been the most popular guy at school with the meanest and most egotistical attitude, Kyle Kingsbury is punished by a witch and turned into a beast who now must find his true love and make her accept him as he is in order to break the curse and return him to being the man he once was.
Amazon Description:
I am a beast.>
A beast. Not quite wolf or bear, gorilla or dog but a horrible new creature who walks upright — a creature with fangs and claws and hair springing from every pore. I am a monster.
You think I’m talking fairy tales? No way. The place is New York City. The time is now. It’s no deformity, no disease. And I’ll stay this way forever — ruined — unless I can break the spell.
Yes, the spell, the one the witch in my English class cast on me. Why did she turn me into a beast who hides by day and prowls by night? I’ll tell you. I’ll tell you how I used to be Kyle Kingsbury, the guy you wished you were, with money, perfect looks, and the perfect life. And then, I’ll tell you how I became perfectly . . . beastly.
