Dance of Shadows
-Yelena Black
Release Date: December 24th, 2012
Curtains up on a deliciously dark new YA trilogy from the creators of Lauren Kate’s Fallen.
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.

My thoughts: I just love this cover so much! The book just sounds so good. I am a ballet dancer and just can't wait to see all the things the author will pull into this! I just wonder what the choreographer is hiding. It sounds a little bit like the Black Swan but with a different story. Definitely excited for this one!\
Do you guys plan on reading this?

I saw this on Goodreads not too long ago and fell in love with the cover. It's gorgeous! Definitely added it to my TBR without even reading the synopsis, lol. But when I read it, it sounds just as good as it looks :)

Hmm I've never seen this one before and it sounds interesting but I'll think about adding it to my to-read list because I'm not sure I like ballet enough to read an entire trilogy about it. Nice pick, though.
