Waiting on Wednesday is a weekly event, hosted by Jill at Breaking the Spine, that spotlights upcoming releases we're eagerly anticipating.
I'm a bit of a copycat this week because I learned about this book through this blog hop a few weeks ago!
Goodreads Book Description:
Vanessa Adler isn’t so sure she really belongs at the School of American Ballet. But dance runs in her family. It’s been a part of her life for as long as she can remember. Her grandmother and mother were prima ballerinas, and her older sister Margaret was, too. That is, until Margaret mysteriously disappeared from school three years ago. Vanessa is heir to the family’s gift and the only person who can fulfill her sister’s destiny. She has no choice.
But she never could have guessed how dangerous the school is. The infamous choreographer, Josef, isn’t just ruthless with his pupils, he guards a sinister secret, one in which the school’s dancers—prized for their beauty, grace, and discipline—become pawns in a world of dark, deadly demons.
Why I Am Excited: Look at this gorgeous cover! OK, I admit, I am susceptible to a nice cover here and there. Also, I LOVE ballet stories and shows. Add paranormal to it? I'm intrigued. Can't wait to see what Black does with this set up.
Why I Am Worried: I hope the ballet is authentic and the paranormal works in seamlessly. It could fall apart if these two aspects of the novel don't work together.

ReplyDeleteAlso, I tried to grab your button to put on my blogroll (to enter in your giveaway), but it's not showing up. Could there be a problem with the html code?
ReplyDeleteSam
ReplyDeleteThanks for entering! I know the html has worked for other people so I think its okay. Make sure you are grabbing the entire code though... It scrolls down. Let me know if u have any more problems!
Not sure why it didn't work the first time, but I got it to work today! Weird...
DeleteSounds good. Yep, the cover is lovely too. And it has an interesting twist to the story.

ReplyDeleteMichael @ The Bookshelf Review
Ooh that sounds really good and I'm loving that cover. Thanks for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteThis is either a book that turns out really good, or fails completely. I'm really hoping that it will be the first. The combination dance and the supernatural sounds really intriguing, and it feels very fresh.
ReplyDeleteI love the cover!! Thanx for the blurb, and for sharing your giveaways again too!!
ReplyDeleteThanx for visiting my WoW!

ReplyDeleteI hadn't heard of this one yet but it sounds terrific! I agree that the two aspects need to seamlessly work together to work, so hopefully they do!
ReplyDeleteWow, this looks awesome! I'm totally adding it to my list. Thanks for sharing :D
ReplyDeleteThe fact that this came from the same group as Fallen makes me skeptical, but dark ballet book could be awesome! I'm watching for reviews!
