3.5 stars - this one started a bit slow for me (mostly bc we were balancing 3 timelines and apparently that is too much for my pea brain??) but once I hit the halfway point I really couldn’t put it down.  I actually wish we would’ve had more story from the fallout in their younger years to see how Kathleen struggled but I do thing the current timeline story painted a good enough picture of it all.  Harriet was frustrating at times, I could’ve used more musical details but overall I am a sucker for a good second chance love story

Wish more people apologized to her, but like it’s a great book anyway

This was so incredible until about 3/4 of the way through when it started having major Wattpad fanfic energy. Last few chapters was the embodiment of “and everyone clapped.” HOWEVER (comma) the theatre kids will be pleased.

I loved every single second of this book. It was warming, moved fast, I liked the time jumps and the summer camp short and sweet scenes. It was a good depiction of theatre and the characters were super rootable.
