REVIEW KISSES AND CROISSANTS - @asjouhanneau Hey guys! Este livro é tão, mas tão fofoooo 🥹 Fala de Mia que viaja até Paris para um curso de verão numa escola de dança. Ai conhece Louis, o filho de um dos mentores. Muito parecido com os romances de Jenna Evans Welch, adorei a aventura que Mia teve. Viver um amor de verão enquanto estás numa cidade desconhecida, num país novo. Isto é a minha trope 🤭 Gostei muito das experiências e das reações da Mia ao conhecer Paris, adorei a comida (descrição só, não podemos ir a Paris) e gostei imenso de o livro falar de ballet. Adoro dança e adorei voltar a este mundo 🩰🥹 É uma leitura muito fácil e querida, ótima para depois de um calhamaço ou de uma leitura mais pesada. Já leram? Gostaram? 🤗 #kissesandcroissants #beijosecroissants #annesophiejouhanneau #romance #youngadultbooks #contemporarybooks #travelbooks #ballet #balletbooks #booksbooksbooks #bookstagram #bookrecommendations #bookreview

Something I found at my front doorstep this morning, and it is this beautiful tome. #balletthedefinitiveillustratedstory #balletbooks
Why not get baby Arian in on the book promotion?? Lol. If there were books like "Ballet Beignet" around when I was a kid, I imagine I would have been so much more confident in my brown skin. There were definitely moments when I felt inadequate and questioned my worth as a kid and teen. Exposure to women who looked like me via television shows helped build my confidence. I'm proof that representation matters. So Baby Arian and grown Arian are here to tell you, 1. Brown girl, you're beautiful, and 2. To add "Ballet Beignet" to your Amazon cart and share it with a little brown girl you know. Remember, the media we expose children to through books, television, and magazines will shape their self-image and self-worth. Expose them to media that builds them up and includes positive characters that look like them. Love, Baby and Adult Arian 💕 #balletbeignet #representationmatters #kidsbooks #balletbooks #browngirls #loveyourself #youmatter #youreworthy #diversereads #blackkidsbooks #kidsbookstagram #kidspicturebooks #childrensbooks #blackballerina

Sometimes the most special performances happen away from the theatre. Our “Enchanted Tales” preview at Zionsville’s Hussey-Mayfield Public Library was just such an occasion! It was a joy share our love of beautiful ballet stories with such an engaged audience in an intimate space! Thank you to all those who attended and to the ibrary staff who are always such gracious hosts! If you missed us, be sure to check out the full-length production of “Enchanted Tales” featuring The Firebird, May 24 & 25 at STAR Bank Performing Arts Center!

I've spent the past couple weeks reading "The Turning Pointe" by Chloe Angyal, subtitled "How a New Generation of Dancers is Saving Ballet from Itself." The publisher's website describes this book as "a reckoning with one of our most beloved art forms, whose past and present are shaped by gender, racial, and class inequities—and a look inside the fight for its future." It is a well-written book, but it made me a little sad for the culture behind the art form that I've loved all my life. See a video summary of the book through our class website (link in bio) or at: youtube.com/boldtypebooks3710 #adultballet #balletbooks

Our Composer for May is Tchaikovsky! We sing a song about him every year in music for elementary school and I somehow never learned that he composed both Sleeping Beauty and Swan Lake. I can’t recommend The Story Orchestra series enough. Beautifully illustrated and great clips of the music from ballets and operas from Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake and the Nutcracker to The Magic Flute and In the Halls of the Mountain King, the quality and illustrations never disappoint. #tchaikovsky #childrensbooks #sleepingbeauty #ballet #balletbooks #thestoryorchestra #ellabellaballerina

spoiler free review ୨୧ 𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙮 𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙩𝙩𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 & 𝙨𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙮 𝙗𝙧𝙤𝙠𝙚𝙣 𝙥𝙞𝙚𝙘𝙚𝙨 ୨୧ 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘰𝘶𝘱 𝘰𝘧 𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘴𝘵𝘶𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘵 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘨𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘣𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘵 𝘴𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘰𝘭 𝘸𝘩𝘰 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘨𝘦𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘱… this was a rollercoaster. 🩰 i picked up these books after i watched the tv adaptation for it on netflix (tiny pretty things). i hate to say it but…i like the adaptation better…. 🩰 i think the main reason for this is because the show leaned more into the thriller and mystery aspect of the story that i felt the books lacked. when i finished the show and was left on a cliffhanger, i was looking forward to reading the book with the same thrilling moments but i was disappointed. there were some very dark and thrilling aspects that i enjoyed but a lot of them fell flat 🩰 despite all this, i still really liked the books. it went a lot into the mental health struggles these characters faced because of ballet. the characters themselves did drive this book which i loved. 🩰 i think if i read the duology before i watched the show, i would’ve enjoyed the books a lot more. i did listen to the second book via audiobook and find it really enjoyable because of the multiple pov’s & different narrators. 🩰 if you like morally ambiguous characters, drama, ballet, and a lots of backstabbing, i would recommended this duology! of course, i would highly suggest checking trigger warnings before as this duology deals with a lot of mental health issues & triggering topics. 𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘺 𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 ★★★ (3) 𝘴𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘺 𝘣𝘳𝘰𝘬𝘦𝘯 𝘱𝘪𝘦𝘤𝘦𝘴 ★★★★ (3.75)

🩰Las bailarinas🩰 En la parte de atrás tiene como una etiqueta 🏷 que dice #misterio y no es para nada de misterio, a mí no me molesta porque eso no es lo que buscaba, pero en caso llegas al libro por que te gusta el misterio, este no es el libro xD Es más como un slice of life en torno al ballet y yo amo eso porque me encanta el ballet así que creo que a cualquiera que practique ballet le podría gustar este libro, ya que muestra ampliamente como es la vida de una Bailarina de ballet, qué tan dura es la competencia en esa carrera, los sacrificios que conlleva y también el poco tiempo que tienen para brillar en sus vidas por lo que deben retirarse antes de hacerse demadiaso mayores... leerlo me dio ganas de volver a ver #tinyprettythings Y #dancedancedanceur 💖. A mí me gusta mucho todo el tema del ballet así que lo disfruté mucho, además de que está contado en dos tiempos que se mezclan intercalando capítulos ✨️ ⭐️4/5 #rachelkapelkedale #lasbailarinaslibro #theballerina #librodeballet #ballet #loveballet #Bookstagram #instabook #pinkbooks #lesdanseurs instabook #booklover #balletbooks #librosrecomendados #libros #bookphotography #reinadecaramelo #librosyfunkos #funkosylibros #booksandfunko #bookaesthetic #bookbookbook #lasbailarinas #theballerinas

Maybe I have too much time on my hands... but I couldn't resist putting together this little collection of my three covers of #TheSleepingBeauties with the #MetGala2024 outfits 🌹 This is my first year in NYC, so it was fun to follow the Met Gala in the same time zone as the guests arriving. Especially with the theme 🥀 . I'm looking forward to a trip to the @metmuseum soon to visit the costume institute 2024 exhibition - Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion 🌹 THE SLEEPING BEAUTIES is set in 1940s London and if you're looking for fashion, ballet costumes, obsession, betrayal, and heartache, my novel has been described as being 'rich with historical detail and high-stakes drama' (Alice Robb) Out now in the UK and coming to the US in September. 1.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ - 3.5 stars! 🌶 - 1 spicy pepper! Thanks NetGalley and the author for the eARC in exchange for an honest review. (Comes out May 21st!) Chloe Angyal does ballet rom-coms like nobody else and I'm here for it. So, I loved her previous book, highly recommend it, which is why my expectations were through the roof for this one. Both the plot and her writing are really good, but I had a bit of trouble with the overall flow and sometimes with Carly. While I loooove her character, she sometimes had reactions that felt a bit abrupt to me or hard to relate to. However, I am soooo here for her health journey and really loved seeing a FMC that has pelvic pain, her struggles and her recovery. I very much enjoyed seeing that in a book and felt like it makes it much more real. Overall, a sweet enemies-to-lovers that hits the spot, especially if you enjoy the ballet component like me 😁💜 . . . . . . . . . . . #balletbooks #balletromance #romcombooks #romanticcomedy #enemiestolovers #bookreview #bookrecommendations #recomendacionesliterarias #reseñasdelibros #bookstagramargentina #bookstagrammer

Que saudade que eu tenho dos meus livros de ballet. 🥹Esses e muitos outros ficaram no Brasil, junto com a Carol que, toda semana, fazia um ou dois cursos simultâneos de historia da dança com a maravilhosa @nataliasamarino. 🫶🏻🤍📚 Foi uma época muito importante, que contribuiu imensamente para o meu eu bailarina. Particularmente, acho que toda bailarina adulta deveria estudar e pesquisar ballet. Entender aquele universo no qual ela está entrando. Sempre fui dos livros, dos sebos, de buscar a história por trás da história e desvendar símbolos. E sou muito grata por ter me aberto pra todo esse conhecimento. Os livros estão guardados, claro. Eu não conseguiria me desfazer. E espero um dia conseguir colocar um por um em uma linda estante. 🙏🏻 #balletbooks #livrodeballet

What happens to a dancer when they can no longer dance? How do they cope with the heartbreak but necessity of one day leaving behind a career they loved for a new life? Author Maggie Shipstead grapples with these questions and so much more in this month’s book pick, Astonish Me. The novel primarily follows Joan, a corps de ballet dancer with the thinly veiled New York City Ballet, who decides to leave the company and start a new life as a wife and mother. Astonish Me jumps back and forth between Joan’s career in the 1970s to the present day as she attempts to find her place in her new life. She is ready to start fresh, but ballet doesn’t want to leave her behind. She ends up as a ballet instructor and once her son Henry enrolls in lessons it is clear he might actually be a prodigy. Throughout the book, we get to know Joan, Henry, and six other main characters whose stories are mixed with trauma, beauty, and sometimes just the mundane realities of life. As one Goodreads reviewer stated “It’s a story of a marriage that is not always fair. It’s a story of the complications of ballet, which aren’t always fair. It’s a story of life, which is rarely fair. It’s a great story.” It’s a quick read that will leave you feeling both deeply satisfied and wishing there was more.

I read some books this month courtesy of invigilation life. Most of these are charity shop bound so also available to good homes if preferred! I super enjoyed the Riviera Set (bought with my Christmas voucher from my brother) about fancy party life on the Côte d’Azur which, yet again, cemented that I was born into the wrong life 😂 • #aprilreads #reading #books #bookworm #readersofinstagram #autobiography #fiction #lornahill #balletbooks
ⓟⓤⓑ ⓓⓐⓨ Happy Pub Day to The Swans of Harlem. This is a really fascinating look into a part of the dance world that I honestly knew nothing about. Karen Valby explores the forgotten history of the once thriving Dance Theatre of Harlem. A talented, young pool of black ballet dancers trying to make their mark during the height of the Civil Rights Movement. With the rise of current stars like Misty Copeland their fifty year history has all but been erased. The story mostly follows the five founding ballerinas and with candid conversations and revealing tidbits about their tough love director, Arthur Mitchell, it’s an intimate look inside their difficult but ultimately rewarding dance life. The pacing moved the story along well even though there are a lot of names to keep track of. I especially loved the chapters the ballerinas wrote themselves about their own journeys. As a ballet mom, I could relate to a lot of the different dance numbers, movements and even complaints about painful pointe shoes! I came to care deeply for these charming woman and am so happy to see their story finally being told. Thank you to @netgalley & @pantheonbooks for an early copy of this book! 🏷️… #publishingday #pubday #newrelease #theswansofharlem #nonfiction #nonfictionbooks #historybooks #balletbooks #ballethistory #karenvalby #readersofinstagram #readingcommunity #anticipatedbooks #offthetbr #bookreview #bookrecommendations

Book: “Ballet Besties: Yara’s chance to dance” by Yasmine Naghdi Format: paperback (ARC) Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Review: Thanks to Readers First, the publishers and the author for sending me an advanced readers copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. Overall I feel this is a great story for young readers (probably for a 7-10 year old audience). The story is heartwarming and the main character likeable but at times it was too fast paced and this detracted from my enjoyment. I also found far too many typos which was why I couldn’t rate it any higher than 3 stars. I thought the amount of details about ballet was good and there are some nice strike sections at the back including a recipe, an outline of the plot of the traditional sleeping beauty ballet and a explanation and glossary of all the basic ballet steps/positions. The author is a former principal dancer for the royal ballet and this certainly comes across in the passionate love of ballet demonstrated in her writing. The book also looks as though it may become part of a series for children. #balletbesties #ballet #balletpost #balletbook #balletbooks #yasminenaghdi #childrens #childrensbooks #childrensbook #advancedreaderscopy #advancedreadercopy #readersfirst #booksbooksbooks #bookworm #book #bookstagramwrapped #childrensbookstagram
