Instructions for Dancing
by Nicola Yoon
I can’t recall the last time a book made me cry, but this one did. Granted, I read the last half of it on a day that’s already emotionally charged for me, so I’m sure that contributed to some of my feelings, but this book really moved me.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Yoon writes with such humor and warmth and emotion, and I was just swept along for the ride. In the beginning, I felt like this book was so adorable in the best way, and then at some point in the journey, Yoon just took my heart and smashed it to pieces.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I fell in love with our main character, Evie, straight away. She’s a reader as well, and she loves romances, like I do. I also loved the ballroom dancing aspect of the story because it’s something I enjoy watching and I even dabbled in it for a year during college. I could definitely see some of myself in Evie and I was rooting for her the whole time.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This beautiful novel made me think about loss and love, both romantic and platonic. It’s about growing up and growing as a person and learning how to cope with the curveballs that life throws at us.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I think it’s amazing when a book evokes really strong emotions, and this one certainly did that for me. I thought this was a wonderful read from start to finish and this is my new favorite book of hers.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If this is on your TBR (and it should be if you like YA and romance), make sure to have some tissues handy!
