I loved this book. Loved the imperfect characters and the cute romance. I will be recommending this one to everyone at the school library I work in. I look forward to reading more from this author.

I got so hooked on this book that I borrowed the library version and bought the audiobook so I wouldn’t be without it at any stage! I read most of it in paperback form but when I was unable to read that I made sure the audiobook was playing!
Luca, Jordan, Amina and Luca’s dad, Robert, are all such gorgeous characters they almost made me want to move to Ballarat just in case I bumped into them

not the most life-changing story i've ever read but still just incredibly cute + fun. lots of 16-year-old angst. not so many ballet scenes as i would've liked but it wouldn't have made sense for the pacing to have more - i just know that when he finally did dance the relief was instant + the author clearly knew that feeling so well <3

I devoured this book in less than 2 days, which is a very rare thing to do. I loved the characters and how all of them felt so real. Luca was a very intriguing protagonist and I really connected with him and his obstacles.
