Meh. I’ve been really into books involving dance and boarding schools recently so I was excited to pick this book up. However, I’m a little let down by it. Kate and Marine read to similarly where I had a hard time remembering who’s chapters I was reading. Of the 2, I think Marine’s plot line was more developed and thought out. I think Kate’s was little all over the place and could have been paired down (slight spoiler: the pregnancy was practically glossed over, when I felt that could be more of a story line) overall, just a little underwhelming!
