Average rating4.3
June, Bette, and Gigi have given their all to dance at Manhattan’s most elite ballet school. Now they are competing one final time for a spot at the prestigious American Ballet Company. With the stakes higher than ever, these girls have everything to lose…and no one is playing nice.
June is starting to finally see herself as a prima ballerina. However, getting what she wants might cost her everything—including the only boy she’s ever loved. Legacy dancer Bette is determined to clear her name after she was suspended and accused of hurting her rival, Gigi. Even if she returns, though, will she ever regain the spotlight she craves? And Gigi is not going to let Bette—or the other dancers who bullied her—go unpunished. But as revenge consumes her, Gigi may be the one who pays the price.
After years of grueling auditions, torn ribbons, and broken hearts, it all comes down to this last dance. Who will make the cut? And who will lose her dream forever?

Ballet. Diverse cast. Writing that moved like dancers. Drama filled, issue filled, but satisfying in the end. One of my faves of 2016!
"You love to dance. You live to dance. But dying to dance? No. This I will not allow."
The follow-up to Tiny Pretty Things, so far only a duology according to GR but I'm hoping for more. As beautiful as the previous one in not shying away from the world that craves white, thin bodies. I feel like thematically it fits better for me, personally. I love the softness of these characters if you look beyond their biting, sharp teeth. I'm biased though. There are a lot more #FamilyFeels in this one. Read these back to back with no regrets.
