Now a Netflix TV show! Black Swan meets Pretty Little Liars in this soapy, drama-packed novel featuring diverse characters who will do anything to be the prima at their elite ballet school.

Gigi, Bette, and June, three top students at an exclusive Manhattan ballet school, have seen their fair share of drama.

When every dancer is both friend and foe, the girls will sacrifice, manipulate, and backstab to be the best of the best.

YA book about super mean girls at a ballet academy. Told from 4 different POV we learn what the girls are willing to do to get the lead roles.

Infuriating because this is part of a series but NONE of the storylines are resolved here. I'm not sure I care enough to read more books to see what happens.

While the writing was good, this bitch fest of a ballet drama was not for me. I could see recommending it to someone who loves a gossipy novel. ( )

I enjoyed this book. It was interesting and I thought all the characters were well written and fascinating. I did think the ending was a bit weak and rushed, but overall I liked it. I would recommend to fans of teen dramas. ( )

There's nothing scarier than teenage girls (this coming from a teenage girl). ( )

Although I found this novel a tad slow, overall, I quite enjoyed following the drama and competitiveness that occurs in a ballet boarding school. The cast was diverse, which I appreciated, and the novel dealt with some serious issues.

Narrated by three girls, Bette was determined to be the school's prima ballerina, Gigi was the newbie with a serious heart condition while June resorted to starvation and purging to stay slim. They battled against each other to win the lead role in each ballet performance and were quite vicious in their determination to be the star. From the start there was a huge amount of back-stabbing going on which made the three girls unlikeable. There was definitely no love loss between them! Drama, ruthlessness, sabotage, romance and secrets abounded.

While I wasn't enthralled with the characters, I did enjoy the setting with all its dance references and the ugliness behind the beauty of a ballet performance. Dark, gritty and full of drama, "Tiny Pretty Things" was an entertaining read. ( )
