pamelina 's review for:

Instructions for Dancing by Nicola Yoon
5.0

5/5

I'm-

I will need a few business days to recover and process this book.

This was such a cute, heartwrenching, sweet read. Nicola Yoon has done it again, but I think this is my favorite of her books so far.

The story follows Evie and X as they get paired up to compete in a dance competition. Evie is struggling with love and whether she believes in it after her parents' divorce, and X complicates things further by being perfect for her.

It seemed like a pretty solid, cute YA Contemporary Romance, but I should have known better. Things took a little bit of an unexpected turn, and it made me like the book even more. I won't say more because I think this book should be read without knowing too much.

All in all, the moral of the story is simple, but important, and I think this book does a wonderful job of delivering its message. I'm so glad I got to read this!

Note: HUGE thank you to Netgalley and publishers for providing this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own :)
