What if Belle's mother cursed the Beast? As Old as Time is the third book in a new YA line that reimagines classic Disney stories in surprising new ways. When Belle touches the Beast's enchanted rose, memories flood through Belle's mind-memories of a mother she thought she would never see again. And, stranger still, she sees that her mother is none other than the beautiful enchantress who cursed the castle and all its inhabitants. Shocked and confused, Belle and the Beast will have to unravel a dark mystery about their families that is 21 years in the making.

The beginning of this book played out almost exactly liked the movie. It started to get interesting about 200 pages in. The story took a dark turn, but I was left almost unsatisfied in the end. Four stars because this happens to be my favorite Disney movie.

I love Disney's Beauty and the Beast and I really liked the twist, but I disliked the writing style. I found it lacking.

Trage starter in vergelijk met a new world, maar eens goed gestart een heel fijn verhaal. De originele elementen uit Belle en het beest komen uiteraard terug. Maar ik vind het een verassend einde. En ben erg blij dat ik de eerste hoofdstukken heb doorgezet.
