Romance
I loved this book if you love dancing and a romance then this book is for you. Full of humour and a romance. I’ve read a few of Nicola Yoon books this was my favourite I loved so far. Evie loved dancing and wants to find out what love is like and she meets x and they have a romance. I like Evie and x relationship has its grows through the book. This book will make you smile and cry the same time. I loved the characters in this story they were all different. This is a very good book you enjoy.

Not like her previous books!
I’m a big fan of Nicola Yoon’s books and this one did not disappoint. It was different to her previous two books in that it was really quite heartbreaking! I loved the message it gives and really enjoyed reading it. I don’t give 5 stars easily so this is high praise for Instructions for Dancing!

Uma surpresa adorável para um Livro YA
Já tinha visto algumas resenhas/avaliações da história e esperava pouco, já que a maioria dos personagens soa adolescentes do último ano, e a maioria dos problemas são envolvidos com hormônios, rsrs.Mas aqui o tópico tem uma surpresa adorável. Tem um aprofundamento melhor sobre sentimentos, não temos só o romance, tem o toque do humor (indireto, irônico, de tudo um pouco) também. Há o drama familiar, que é o kick inicial da trama que envolve a Evie. Até uma pitada de ficção, que foi o que me surpreendeu positivamente.Estou quase na metade do livro agora e posso garantir que apesar da ideia do livro, no geral, ser um pouco "clichê", é uma boa história. Consigo me simpatizar e conectar com os sentimentos das personagens. Ainda bem que fui com uma mente aberta e o resultado tá sendo maior que minhas expectativas.Não é uma leitura em inglês difícil, para quem estiver em dúvida. Quem estiver em nível intermediário de inglês já poderá aproveitar bastante o texto, e aprender muito do vocabulário usado!Recomendo real!

It's not a typical love story.
It's not a typical love story. it's a story to teach you to never give up on love. Heart warming and sad at the same time... It's good but not too good like everything everything and sun is also a star. Honestly speaking the story is nice and short and interesting. It's just not what I expected from Nicola Yoon. The writing style is so different it feels like a completely different author. Go for it but don't make a mistake of comparing it with her previous two books like me.

Heartwarming, beautiful, quick and emotional read- I enjoyed it a lot!
⭐️ 4.5 stars ⭐️CharactersEvie: Though, I didn’t think Evie Thomas was a relatable (I’m too hopelessly romantic for that) but I loved her character! She was smart and great to read about. Yes, she was a flawed character and made mistakes due to her anger, I think it made her a very realistic character. She had gone through so much emotionally so her reactions were expected. In the end, I also really loved seeing how far she had come and witnessing her growth made me love her even more.X: Xavier was the perfect love interest! He was a really nice guy who was also sweet and easy to like. I also loved X’s general outlook on life.Evie and X shared their emotions with each other because they had similar experiences but they were still so different from each other emotionally. Their romance was super cute and also meaningful! It was really great seeing how Evie’s journey began at the beginning of the book and how much all the things she experienced throughout the story changed her views and made her start loving again.There were so many side characters that I really loved: X’s grandparents, Fifi, Martin, Danica! But most of all, I LOVED the dances!! Reading the names of all the dances mentioned made me so excited and I also tried following some of the steps Evie described! It was so much fun! I just wish there was more of it in the book.‘‘The philosopher-poets say love is the answer, but it’s more than that. Love is the question and the answer and the reason to ask in the first place. It’s everything. All of it.’’As someone who is very satisfied with just reading about great loves and happily ever-afters, this book really made me think about why we go through all the heartbreak and pain just for love.The ending was bittersweet, as I was already expecting. I cried a bit but not as much as I had thought I would after my experience with Everything, Everything by her. But overall, it was heartwarming, beautiful, quick and emotional read- I enjoyed it a lot!
