This book was amazing!

It had some really serious topics, so hard-hitting!

I seriously fell in love with it, i couldnt put it down! Finished in 3 hours flat!

I love Alfie he is so sweet!<3

My best friend does ballet and is auditioning for lots of schools, i really hope she doesnt get like this.

Please, if anything like this applies to you, Please, Please, Please talk to someone! I would hate to think of anybody having to suffer something like this!

Everybody is BEAUTIFUL!<3

I feel like it's a little predictable for the wannabe ballet dancer to develop an eating disorder but it was still well-written in describing the sneakiness of the illness and how it draws people in. I also just love this family in general.

Reat it when I was really young, I think this is a good serie to start reading when you are young ! (now I have different tastes), there is some very importants subjects covered in this series which are still relevant today
