Thanks to Disney Press for sending me a matching prize pack and for providing for my winner!

 

About Lost in a Book

Smart, bookish Belle, a captive in the Beast’s castle, has become accustomed to her new home and has befriended its inhabitants. When she comes upon Nevermore, an enchanted book unlike anything else she has seen in the castle, Belle finds herself pulled into its pages and transported to a world of glamour and intrigue. The adventures Belle has always imagined, the dreams she was forced to give up when she became a prisoner, seem within reach again.

The charming and mysterious characters Belle meets within the pages of Nevermore offer her glamorous conversation, a life of dazzling Parisian luxury, and even a reunion she never thought possible. Here Belle can have everything she ever wished for. But what about her friends in the Beast’s castle? Can Belle trust her new companions inside the pages of Nevermore? Is Nevermore‘s world even real? Belle must uncover the truth about the book, before she loses herself in it forever.

  2. It’s been awhile but I loved all the characters and when she meets Lumineer.

  3. I’m looking forward to seeing how they take the objects, like the teapot & candelabra, from the animated movie & translate them into a live-action movie. I’m betting this movie will be another Disney classic.

  4. My favorite part about Beauty and The Beast was when the beast changed into a human at the end!

  8. I have not seen Beauty and the Beast in so long I do not know what my favorite part is.

  12. I’m a librarian, so my favorite part is when Belle is on the ladder gliding around the huuuuge library. Lol. #geekout

  14. Hmmm….my favorite part is when Belle and the Beast have the snowball fight! It is so cute. Also, when they are having dinner and he has such terrible manners, but it is ok with her. So sweet! Love that story!

  17. the singing

  21. My favorite scene in the film, I think it’s the best Disney transformation there is. It’s bright, magical, and I always sit there anticipating the final moment where the light shines and the human face appears, and you see the man beneath the Beast, although he looks like Fabio and Belle’s lovechild. It makes his character more real to me. I love this scene!!

  22. I commented on this blog post
    These Fans Can’t Wait for A New Star Wars Movie!

  23. My favorite part of Beauty and the Beast is when they look into each other’s eyes and he sees what she is seeing in him and falls in love.

  30. My favorite part about Beauty and The Beast was when the beast changed into a human

  32. I love the music and I love when the Beast presents Belle with the library! Even as a kid I wanted a library like that.

  36. I have to say that I honestly don’t remember much about it. My oldest daughter hasn’t stopped talking about the redo so I’m sure I will get see it soon.

  43. commented here-https://raisingthreesavvyladies.com/2017/03/beauty-and-the-beast-trailers-beourguest-beautyandthebeast/#comment-238718

  48. My favorite part is when the Beast takes Belle into library he created for her; it’s so romantic and sweet! 🙂

  54. I like when the Beast is getting ready for their dinner date. That’s a funny part….but I also like when they are dancingoing. Such a pretty song.

  59. This is my favorite Disney movie! I think my favorite part has to be the “Be our Guest” song with all of the dishes and table wear. It’s just so much fun!

  62. The whole thing!! Every time they sing! I still know every word from every song! 🙂

  66. I think my favorite part [besides the library scene, because WOW] is when they are out in the winter garden together.

  71. It has been so long since I have seen the movie, the part I remember most is when she came out in the yellow dress.

  73. my favorite part in the original movie is the scene where she and the beast are outside playing with the snow and feeding the birds.

  75. Tough choice since I love the whole movie, but I do love when Gaston jumps on the table in the tavern and sings “Gaston!”

  83. I love it when they dance together, to me that just makes the movie.

  87. I commented on Emily Blunt as Mary Poppins, exciting news with that remake. I am loving these real people movies out for kids!

  90. My favorite part of Beauty in the Beast is when they are dancing in the ballroom. The ballroom was so pretty, the stars, Belle’s dress, and I liked the singing.

  93. I like their ballroom dance. 🙂 I haven’t seen the movie in a looooong time so I might be mistaken but I think it’s a ballroom dance.

  94. My favorite parts are when she basically tells Gaston to get lost and the relationship between Mrs. Potts and Chip.

  96. I love this! I’m such a Beauty & the Beast fan <3
    My favorite is the music- especially when she begins to see him differently- "there's something there" that song is so pretty! Love Belle!

  103. My favorite part is probably the snowball fight and of course the ballroom dance. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen it so I’m super excited for this movie!

  107. My favorite part is when Belle sings on the hillside. It’s one of my all time fav Disney moments.

  109. My favorite part in Beauty and the Beast is the dinner “Be My Guest” scene.

  110. My favorite part is when the not so thrilled Beast is groomed by his servants. Thank you for the chance to win!

  112. Can you believe I’ve never seen Beauty and the Beast? I have 3 boys, no girls. Every Disney movie we had was either neutral or geared toward boys. They never had an interest. I am about to watch the original for the first time.

  113. My favorite part of beauty and the beast is the the Be Our Guest Musical number. Thanks for the giveaway. I hope that I win.

  119. I so can not wait to see this friday with my daughter!!!!!!!!! I love when they dance the beautiful yellow gown!!!

  120. My fave part is when the dishes and kitchenware is dancing and singing around Belle. Be Our Guest!

  122. My absolute favorite part of Beauty and the Beast is when Belle is living in the castle with the Beast and finally starts to see him as who he truly is on the inside. We finally start seeing the layers to his character and get a sense of who is and why. Such a beautiful story.

  128. It’s been so long since I’ve seen it/read it that I can’t remember.
    Thanks for the contest.
