Notes
Description
"I don't even know if I'm following the choreo. I'm moving without worrying about being good, without obsessing about getting every move right. All the frustration and disappointment I jammed down every time I was passed over for a role, all of my yearning to be seen bursts out of me in a torrent of unfettered emotion. Ballet is Aisha's life. So when her mental health suffers after she's denied yet another opportunity at her elite academy because she doesn't "look the part," switching to her BFF Neil's art school seems like the perfect plan... until Aisha discovers Neil has been struggling with his own issues. Overwhelmed, Aisha enlists the help of a disarmingly cute musician who makes it a little less scary to open up when she needs support. But when discrimination in her new ballet class awakens old traumas, Aisha must find strength in herself and place her trust in others to make her next move." -- Back cover.
