“Amazing! This book is BRILLIANT!! The different perspectives towards the evolution of Beautys Kingdom created a richer and deeper connection with how meaningful this kingdom was/is to each person. Then to have Beauty have such success but still be conflicted about something unknown is a feeling I, and likely, many other women feel. She was longing for something. Missing something. And in the end, she was able to master and accomplis her need, securing her confidence in her Kingdom, but most importantly herself. Just brilliant. -- IMO, one must read all the other 3 books to really connect with the characters and backstories.”
“Finally… I finished the Sleeping Beauty series.
By the time I got to Beauty’s Kingdom, I felt like I had gotten used to everything the series had to offer. The shock value that made the earlier books so controversial just wasn’t there anymore.
The story was okay, but it didn’t surprise me. Instead of feeling fresh or exciting, it felt like more of the same. I kept reading because I wanted to see how the series would end, not because I was completely invested.
Final Thoughts
I’m glad I finished the series for the sake of completion, but this final installment didn’t leave a lasting impression. It wrapped things up, but without the impact I was hoping for.
⭐⭐ 2 stars”
