The Ballerinas by Rachel Kapelke-Dale
3.0

While I thought the author's writing was strong and they did a great job of making you feel immersed in the world of ballet, the story wasn't as thrilling as I wanted it to be. The mystery aspect was pretty minor and very slow burn. The characters were also not very likable, which felt realistic for their consuming commitment to ballet but it made it hard for me to feel invested in this story.
