Bee reviewed The Beautiful by Renee Ahdieh
Review of 'The Beautiful' on 'Goodreads'
5 stars
I was given a sample of The Beautiful by Renée Ahdieh from Netgalley and Penguin Young Readers Group, thank you.
The Beautiful is entrancing and Renée Ahdieh has created a New Orleans reminiscent of the work of Anne Rice and I felt as if I were arriving at the docks of ’The Big Easy’ alongside Celine and her friends. You can practically feel the heat from the flames, and draw in the many sights and smells of this notoriously fascinating city due to the talented descriptions of the author.
I have always loved vampire stories especially those that hold onto the classic styles that are depicted so well by Renée Ahdieh and I known that this series will be finding a place on my bookshelves as I am certain I will love these for some time.
It has everything you could want in a story where you can't stop turning …

It has everything you could want in a story where you can't stop turning the page and I was extremely sad to find myself with no more pages of the sample to read!
Everything about this book is a plus - if you love a good vampire story that is written so vividly that you can place yourself among the characters?
The Beautiful is for you. Amazing doesn't seem a good enough word to describe it.
