Bookish and the Beast - (Once Upon a Con) by Ashley Poston (Paperback)

This book is a modern retelling of the classic fairytale "Beauty and the Beast" set in a small town, with a teenage star of a popular science fiction movie franchise hiding out following a tabloid scandal, and meets the bookish Rosie Thorne who is still grieving over her mother's death.

The story follows their paths as they begrudgingly get to know each other, with their careful masks coming off - and they may just find that there's more risk in shutting each other out than in opening their hearts.

This adaptation of "Beauty and the Beast" is a fresh, geeky retelling of the classic tale as old as time, with a bonus Starfield story!
