❝Lyra’s Oxford❞ & ❝Beauty❞
“Lyra's Oxford” by Philip Pullman.
“Beauty” by Robin McKinley.
Today and yesterday I got 2 more books that I'd ordered; “Lyra's Oxford” by Philip Pullman and “Beauty” by Robin McKinley.
“Lyra's Oxford” takes place 2 years after the last book in the “His Dark Material” trilogy and embarrassing enough I had no idea that any form of continuation of the book series that's one of my favorites was available. But of course I ordered this book right away when I saw it!
“Beauty” is a retelling of the classic story of “Beauty and the Beast”. I'm a big fan of the “Beauty and the Beast” movie and the history itself behind it so I wanna read every retelling book there is about “Beauty and the Beast” (I've already read a book), including this one.
I also follow the new TV-series “Beauty and the Beast” btw and I can recommend it to everyone! Of course I started watching it because of its name and what it's based on but it's actually really good, which is why I've continued to follow it. You should see it if you haven't seen it yet! Now you also know what a big “Beauty and the Beast” fan I am! And I obviously look forward to reading this book.
