Description
Afinal, como Evie tem aprendido, mesmo as maiores histórias de amor terminam com um coração partido.
Ao investigar por que continua tendo essas visões, ela vai parar num estúdio de dança e resolve se matricular. Lá, aprende a dançar valsa, tango e salsa tendo como par Xavier, mais conhecido como X.
O jovem é o oposto de Evie: aventureiro, apaixonado, ousado. Ainda por cima, tem como lema de vida dizer sim para tudo – inclusive participar de um concurso de dança com uma garota que acabou de conhecer.
Apaixonar-se por X definitivamente não estava nos planos de Evie. Se as visões lhe ensinaram alguma coisa, é que ninguém escapa ileso do amor. Mas, à medida que os dois se aproximam, ela é forçada a questionar tudo o que achava que sabia. No fim das contas, será que o amor vale a pena?

I almost gave this book 5 stars. Almost.Pros:I loved the main characters and some of the side characters too.The book was written nicely.The plot twist was astounding and tbh I wasn't expecting it, I normally guess them so that was nice!The message was great.To be honest, a few years ago, I went through a very very similar experience to the main character Evie. So this book hit a little too close to home.Cons:Some of the side characters were VERY 2 dimensional. 2 of Evies friends and her sister, (though it felt they tried give her more depth at the end)The plot twist, while unsuspecting, wasn't what I wanted. The twist was a problem and one that I wished was solved in the end rather than kept as.The relationship with her fathers wives family, wasn't it for me.But look, still one of my most emotional and fun reads this year. Just a few tweaks and it would of been up top.
⭐️3.5A 3.5 read that leans more towards a 4. Despite liking the book and thinking it was perfectly fine and sweet, I couldn’t bring myself to give it a 4 or 5 stars as I didn’t LOVE it as much as other YA Romances that I have read and adored, especially Black YA Romances such as ‘Love Radio’ by Ebony LaDelle and ‘Confessions of an Alleged Good Girl’ by Joya Goffney.It's just that I didn't have that giddy feeling when reading this book like I did with the other Black YA romances I've mentioned, which is a shame since this book was on my TBR list as my most anticipated read of this year.However, I did enjoy some aspects of the book, hence my rating. I enjoyed the magical element in the book. Additionally, I appreciated the message that love can be accompanied by heartbreak, loss and grief, but in the end, the experience of feeling love is totally worth it. No matter how the story ends, love should be experienced head-on and given with all that one has. Overall, the discussion on love was very well done by Nicola Yoon.For the most part, I found this book to be enjoyable to read and hold it in high regard. I would also certainly recommend it, as I believe it is worth it and deserves its Goodreads rating.
