I read this with my daughter, who's a huge fan of Raina. It's super cute. I think the blurb oversell it a bit. There's no danger of the play not happening and it doesn't feel as catastrophic as it sounds. It's more low key figuring out sexuality, crushes, dating, and dances. My daughter loves it and sadly she's rather reluctant to read in general so I love, love, love, when she gets excited for any book. I hope there's an equally cute sequel.
