A review by laurazdavidson
Last Dance on the Starlight Pier by Sarah Bird

3.0

I really wanted to give this one a good review, but it ultimately fell flat. There were some really good ideas here - I loved the idea of focusing on dance marathons during the Great Depression! - but the plot felt contrived and the ending was too neat and melodramatic. I'm hoping this was just a sophomore slump. Sarah Bird's [b:Daughter of a Daughter of a Queen|37638135|Daughter of a Daughter of a Queen|Sarah Bird|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1523454341l/37638135._SX50_.jpg|59225545] was excellent.
