so much backstory

This short story covers a lot of the past for Jane and Beast. Unlike WeSa and the Lumber King, we have both POVs.

just to short this not as good as. others

I just think that she did better work this one was good but kind of phone then I like to see more discussion more RA conversation between the older between what your characters and a lot more life this was not as good as or better works she's a really good writer of she doesn't phone start phoning it in by

Great flashback of first change.

Also a part of the "Cat o' Nine Tales" collection. A great short story of Jane leaving the children's home and her first change into Beast.

I loved it!

I loved it!

This was such a surprise. I found these books and thought they were just more stories about Jane in New Orleans. I had no idea what a treasure trove I had found and what I was in for. I was so happy at the end of my first book to find that these were stories of Jane’s history and how some of her backstories played out that are just referenced throughout the series. I also enjoyed hearing the stories from Molly’s perspective. It was money and time well spent.

short story short is the word

Short story transition and awakening needed to be more natural then it was. love the character

Kind of cool

Kristen Hvam is awesome that alone keeps me intrigued let’s see how the story progresses

Getting to know who Jane Yellow Rock Doe is

Like the title says, The Early Years. Slowly, but surely we are starting to understand her. Though her background is illusive, some of the pieces of who she is are being revealed.

Jane finds Beast

If you could sum up The Early Years in three words, what would they be?

Ending, discovery, rebirth

Who was your favorite character and why?

Jane is a strong innocent with her past behind amnesia. She protects the innocent.

Have you listened to any of Khristine Hvam’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

The artist does an excellent job.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

Very sad when Jane had to leave the children's home and these she protected.

Any additional comments?

Short novellas like a chapter in a book telling how Jane discovered beast within her.

Jane's Mystery

This short gives some background of Jane Yellowrock and how she got her name. It sets the stage for a great series.

Understanding the character a little better now.

I like short stories but this was a little too short I needed to hear more about the character. it seem like you just got to the really good part and then boom the story of us over.
