I picked this book up mainly because I liked the idea of a middle grade book with a "theatre kid" feel, and it definitely met that criteria, but it was also so much more than that. The running themes of dealing with loss and finding your place in the world were relevant for any age group, and the ending left me wishing there was more of the story left to go. It's definitely geared toward a middle grade audience, but that did not stop me from thoroughly enjoying it and becoming totally invested in the characters.
