Diary,

I am locked away . . . with no one to confide in but you . . . and him. His fur, those claws—they caught me off guard at first, but now I'm noticing something else about him—something deeper. It's the look in his eye. It tells me he's got a secret to keep. That's okay—I've got one, too. I think I'm falling in love with him…

Ne a borítójáról ítéld meg a könyvet! szokták mondani. De azért megtesszük. És én már a borítóra vetett első pillantáskor beleszerettem a könyvbe, még mielőtt tudtam volna, hogy miről szól, még mielőtt elolvastam volna. De nem volt rossz a megérzésem, mert a könyv elolvasása után is megmaradt ez a szerelem.

Ez a kötet tulajdonképpen Alex Flinn Szörnyszívűjének "másik fele", tehát a Beastly történései Lindy szemszögéből. Szerintem nagyon kellett ez a könyv, sajnálom, hogy nem is jelent meg magyarul, bár az oldalszáma miatt megértem. Mégis, akinek tetszett a Szörnyszívű, és tud angolul, mindenképp olvassa el, mert csodálatos. Beleláthatunk Lindy fejébe, hogy mit miért tett, hogy mit érzett, amikor megtörténtek a könyv eseményei. Ha lehet, ez még jobban tetszett, mint az eredeti könyv.

Kedvenc idézetek

"I’ve realized that, sometimes, you have to let people go. But I’m really glad I have someone to hold on to."

"“The old Kyle would have made his life miserable,” Adrian said when I mentioned it to him. “Don’t remind me about that guy.” 

“There was always some good, deep inside him.” 

“Yeah, real deep. So deep you’d need an archeologist to find it.” 

“I saw the good in you,” I said. 

“You see the good in everyone. That’s what I love about you.” 

I said, “I love you, too.” And I did."

"“How was the spell broken?” I said. 

“Magic. It was magic, and the magic is called love. I love you, Lindy.” He leaned and kissed me. 

I kissed him back because, finally, I understood. Kyle was Adrian, and Adrian was Kyle. It was like one of my books, like a fairy tale, and I was the princess, the one that transformed him with my love, my kiss. And, in turn, he transformed me from a lonely, unloved girl to a romantic heroine."

"“I love you, Lindy. I know I’m too ugly for you to love, but I’ll always . . .” Around me, the Kendra-Angels were singing, and I was crying. “I love you too, Adrian. But please, let me—” Again, I stood. Again, they pushed me back. Adrian grabbed my arm. “Then kiss me,” he said. “Let me have the memory of your kiss, even if I die.” Die?"

"Before, I knew only what it was to be his daughter, to live day to day and wait for it to be over. But now, I knew what it was to have someone talk to me, care for me . . . be with me . . . and . . .” 

“Love you?” His words were a gasp."
