"I loved this book. It was a refreshing change in both content and style from all the duds I've been picking lately. This book was about something real and I loved to watch the main character discover her true identity as the book progressed. Great book, I can't wait to read more by her!"
"I was drawn to this book from the fact that when reading the synopsis, I figured I might identify with the main character, and her struggle. I'm definitely not a anorexic/bulimic dancer (quite the opposite as my being overweight has affected me negatively) and that she's searching for purpose in what seems to be a meaningless an mindless job. I like the story, and the characters, and it moved quickly, and kept me interested. I only gave it 3 stars because I don't think it was as well written as I would have liked, and ended abruptly without sufficient conclusion (if you ask me). Overall, I enjoyed it..."
