Pick of the Week: Curses by Lish McBride

This week features the most awkward intro we've ever recorded (sorry in advance), and Jordan's frustration with Curses by Lish McBridge. Well written, interesting secondary characters, all wrapped up in a reverse Beauty in the Beast retelling: what's not to love? Well, for Jordan, a plot mechanism that lets the love interest see the heroine with the cursed lifted for a few hours (Gasp! She's actually beautiful? Now I can for sure love her!)https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/43207851If you're looking for something similar but with Jordan's stamp of approval, try:Thorn by Intisar Khananihttps://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/51265989Beauty by Robin McKinleyhttps://www.goodreads.com/book/show/41424.BeautyTwo Monarchies Sequence by W.R.
