Bunheads by Sophia Flack
As a dancer with the ultra-prestigious Manhattan Ballet Company, nineteen-year-old Hannah Ward juggles intense rehearsals, dazzling performances and complicated backstage relationships. Up until now, Hannah has happily devoted her entire life to ballet.
But when she meets a handsome musician named Jacob, Hannah's universe begins to change, and she must decide if she wants to compete against the other "bunheads" in the company for a star soloist spot or strike out on her own in the real world. Does she dare give up the gilded confines of the ballet for the freedoms of everyday life?
I have never read a dance book before but I would love to! I love the US cover and I am so pleased the book is being published in the UK in 2012!
It sounds like a great read! And it's funny because I did ballet for 10 years. :o) Great pick!
