Explanation Concering Books Kill Me Softly (Beau Rivage #1)
>Mirabelle's past is shrouded in secrecy, from her parents' tragic deaths to her guardians' half-truths about why she can't return to her birthplace, Beau Rivage. Desperate to see the town, Mira runs away a week before her sixteenth birthday—and discovers a world she never could have imagined. In Beau Rivage, nothing is what it seems—the strangely pale girl with a morbid interest in apples, the obnoxious playboy who's a beast to everyone he meets, and the chivalrous guy who has a thing for damsels in distress. Here, fairy tales come to life, curses are awakened, and ancient stories are played out again and again. But fairy tales aren't pretty things, and they don't always end in happily ever after. Mira has a role to play, a fairy tale destiny to embrace or resist. As she struggles to take control of her fate, Mira is drawn into the lives of two brothers with fairy tale curses of their own . . . brothers who share a dark secret. And she'll find that love, just like fairy tales, can have sharp edges and hidden thorns.Rating Out Of Books Kill Me Softly (Beau Rivage #1)

Terrible. Mira was the worst and she was a total bitch. She was suppose to be blessed with kindness. HA! I hated hated hated this book! She was crazy and she was 15! Yes, her 16 birthday was coming up, but seriously. Not to mention she was blindly chasing after a 21 year old MAN who was running the casino she was staying at. What a skank! Oh and EVERYONE (including the person who was fated to save her sleeping ass) told her and told her to stay away from him. As if the, "Hey if you keep seeingNone of the girls was asleep, drugged, playing, waiting.They were dead.They had been killed here.She wanted to be horrified. It seemed sick to be jealous, too, but she was. It hurt to know hed loved so many other girls; that she was not special, not unique. Mira Lively is 15 years old. Upon the occasion of her birth, the evil fairy cursed her to be doomed by incomprehensible stupidity.I'm just partially kidding.This book exemplifies almost everything that is wrong with YA literature.1.

4/5 StarsReceived this in a Goodreads First Reads Giveaway!Summary:Mira is about to turn 16 and has decided that she is going to look for her parents, who died in a fire almost 16 years ago. She runs away from her godparents and makes her way to Beau Rivage ready to get some answers. And after being kept in the dark so long she sees why her godparents moved away and never spoke of the place again. People in the town are cursed, as is Mira.Dislikes: I feel like some of the parts were drawn out
This was a fantastic book and I loved every minute of it. Retellings are my thing and this definitely done me justice.

Things I liked about this book:The idea of modern teenagers being cursed to live our fairy tales.That's it. That's what got it those two stars.Things I didn't like about this book:The modern teenagers talked like modern teenagers. The profanity wasn't severe, but too frequent for my tastes. They also were drunk/drinking ALL THE TIME! Where are the adults here?! Some of these kids are 15!Mira. Ugh. I don't know if I've ever had a main character annoy me so much! Here's how her though processes
