Hier wordt ik echt een beetje te oud voor. Kinderachtig prank gedoe en jezelf zo slecht kennen. High school is misschien een beetje geweest voor mij ( )

If you're in band or theater this is the book for you! Natalie and Reid have always competed against each other, but when they are forced to work together their competitiveness is on a whole new level. Throw in some new unexpected feelings appearing between them and you have more drama than you planned for.

I enjoyed this book, but the pranks I felt took over the storyline and at times were just cruel.

I won As If on Cue from Goodreads for my honest opinion. I am going to put this in my Little Free Library and I look forward to others reading it. ( )

More of a 3.5 stars. This book lovingly reminded me of all of the theater kids in high school. If Natalie wasn’t so ridiculous, this would have a solid 4 stars from me. ( )

YA romance which pays tribute to high school arts programs, especially theatre. Two teens, Natalie and Reid, have known each other their entire lives, since their dads were best childhood friends. For most of their lives, they have competed with each other, in Natalie’s mind, for her dad’s attention. They both play clarinet, and Natalie’s dad is the HS band director. Natalie has abandoned the clarinet in favor of directing school plays. However, when the school cuts all arts programs except for band, Natalie has to concoct a plan to save the arts. She and Reid butt heads constantly, but there is a tension between them.
I enjoyed this story because I love HS theatre productions, and I believe in the arts. I think teens would enjoy this YA book. Thanks to Riveted Lit and SimonTeen for the copy. ( )
