A fun little romcom you can breeze through in an afternoon (like I did) and just as you think you’re dancing through life, just like Evie & X, the stage collapses underneath you. But that’s the moral of the story, isn’t it? Keep dancing.

Despite the simplicity of this book, it still shines. It’s definitely young adult but that’s what makes it so easily readable and fun.

Nicola Yoon’s previous books focused on heavier, more relatable topics and this story whispers those issues but in a more relatable way, I would say. Easily digestible: divorce, “it’s not a phase dad”, growing up, and yeah, dancing!

Overall, a cute and forward story to entertain you, for sure.
