I won't lie... this book took me a very long time to get in to. Being the type that can't start a book & not finish it, I kept at it. Eventually it did get more interesting, but it took such a long time to buy in to the plot that I couldn't rate it well. I w's well over halfway through it before I was hooked.

Was not from Jack's point of view
I couldn't wait for it to be over
Read the book
The power behind the book was that it was written from Jack's point of view. The movie completely missed this. Sure, it would be difficult to capture on screen, but without it, it was just plain boring.

Totally cute story. My kids enjoyed it. The said that it was cool that the bird wasnt scared to fail and they liked that she kept trying and working at it. They really enjoyed it and I liked that it was short enough and moved enough that it kept the attention of all 5 kids lok. I am very glad I got to review this one

I really enjoyed how ronnie helps keith.. i loved how keith didnt figure it out until later and that he was surprisingly ok with it all. I did figure it out a lot earlier which isn't unusual. It was a very cute, sweet and romantic story with some very sexy scenes and fun characters. I am so glad I got to review it because it was adorable.

This was a good book. I was hesitant to read it because of some of the reviews that stated it was pointless etc. I think that it added a lot to the series. It is very interesting to learn about Butch and see the growth of some of the characters.

It was not one of my favorite books but it still kept me entertained and enthralled.

"It was like watching a documentary but it wasn’t. There’s a scene with Lar Lubovitch, who I ended up working with as a professional, where he’s choreographing a piece on Neve Campbell. It seemed they just let the cameras roll; it was so real. It was like being in the studio and watching them rehearse. It was a window into the life of a dancer."

This was an interesting read. I really enjoyed the female perspective, but it wasn't very accurate, and it was pretty biased against men. Still, it is a fictional story, so I can accept that. It was very well written.

I received this book as a Goodreads Giveaway and I had heard nothing about it besides raving reviews. I had no idea what the book was about it where it was going to take me. It was beautifully written.

Wow... I didn't know what this story would be about when I started it. I am so glad I decided to do so anyways because it was amazing and wonderful. It was dark.. it was high.. it was low.. it was all over the place.. my feelings were invested so much that I kept reading until it was over and then I was left wishing I had more. It was wonderful. The writing was deep and complex and it was a roller coaster ride of emotions. The writing was erotic, thrilling and sensual.. it made you think... and made you wonder about what was happening next and there were a lot of surprises. Totally amazing story by Gavazzoni and I recommend it if you enjoy a dark, thrilling and suspensful story.
