Like everybody has already said: Lots of spankings. This is /not/ a romance novel!
At the beginning Beauty appears to be completely innocent. As her education continues though, she begins to feel things. Her confusion is what makes her endearing in a certain way. And just as she begins to think she understand things, something else happens.
Rice creates a weird culture here. One in which the people pay homage to the monarchy in more than just taxes. She has even included festivals and games. All of this culture we only learn through Beauty's experiences.
I'm looking forward to reading the next in the series, as the ending was a cliffhangar, and I'm still not completely sure why Beauty did what she did.
