Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the eARC!

A couple of things I want to note: I was really, really sucked into this world and I was beyond excited to get a copy of the eARC.

I’ve always been curious of the world of dance, and the ballet world is something I’m really in awe of. The discipline and the dedication that the dancers have is awe inspiring. I do think that they’re in a lot of pressure to do well and that leads to strained psychological health.

Reading this book is such an experience. The author paints a picture of the worlds that Sasha has been immersed in, and I thought that the world building (both of them), was really, really great. However, I did find myself confused in a few parts because I’m not as well versed in books with this much dark themes
