Estoy decepcionada,le faltaron páginas a este libro. ¡Muchas más páginas!

This book really captured my heart! I love a contemporary romance with a dash of magical realism thrown in. So be warned: there is a bit of "woo-woo" in the story. This book hit me right in the heart, though. It's a captivating and emotional, hard-hitting journey that's balanced with plenty of heart-wrenching as well feel-good moments. This is so much more than a simple romance — it's incredibly deep, and perhaps a tad shattering in places as Evie tries her best to stop love from entering her life as well as protect those she loves from unavoidable heartbreak.

In truth, this is a rich story that deals with some very loaded issues like grief, regrets, loss (and that crippling emotional suffering that often comes along with it), and betrayal. Yet, there's also the opportunity to start anew with the vital importance of second chances. The story also nicely illustrated the often tricky and challenging journey of personal growth. A profoundly moving story with depth and a huge heart that I absolutely loved.
fast-paced

One of my favorite books so far. Incredibly sad but the theme and lesson stays throughout the whole book. Still not sure if i liked the short summary ending or if I would've liked it more detailed. 

For me the ending was so sad. I like that it's realistic, but a bit too realistic for me.

Nicola Yoon does no wrong in my eyes. She is an instant-buy author. An this is just another one of her well written books.

Don’t be fooled by the sweet illustrated cover and mild-mannered blurb: Instructions for Dancing is not a light story.

Despite the fact that I was in tears by the end of the story, Instruction for Dancing is still an enjoyable read. I related to Evie; hiding your emotions for fear of getting hurt. But X was worth letting down her walls. He was wonderful.

I do wish her dad had more of a grovel moment, but that’s the revenge-monster in me.

I won’t be fooled by Nicola Yoon again. I’ll be prepared for SAD.
