Received an ARC for my fair review for netgalley. This was the second book in this series, and I don't know if it was that I was so excited about the book, but I did not enjoy it as much as I did the first one, now don't get me wrong, it was still good, and I did still enjoy it, but I had loved the first one, Dimi and Erin had captured my heart. I liked Tessa, even from the first book, poor girl had went thru so much, from having a wacked mom, not that she meant to be that way, but the poor lady just couldn't help herself, but she tended to forget that she had a second daughter, and that part broke my heart. Then there was Luke, I understood that he had gone thru a lot, but he just didn't my sympathy, I think Tessa deserved someone better, but I had to remind myself that they were teenagers and not to hold it against him. We got to see Erin and Dimi briefly, very briefly and that part just about killed me, I had wanted just a little more of the, but I get it story is not about them, but it would have been nice, to catch up with them, but I am hopeful that we will get to read more about their relationship when Natalie's book comes out, because I can't wait for that, she deserves it. Anyway, don't wait, catch yourself up, we still get a lot of hours of entertainment.… (más)

Read book, just to read no obligation to anyone...This is a great book! Loved Dimi and Erin. Poor Erin, she was a tough cookie, with everything she had to live with. I admired her, for a young person to care and love her brother as much as she did was admirable. Dimi, knew he had messed up with her originally but he sure made up for it. He loved her, and it was understandable when he did mess up, he was going thru a tough time, and he is a young guy, they do not really think at times, but the good thing was he realized it, then and he knew he had to let her know reason, which was also admirable, he could have just let it go and assume he would be forgiven for being a dumb ass at time, but he didn't. Mistakes are often made by everyone. This was a crazy story, but good, sad at times ofcourse, but great. You will truly enjoy this book. Loved other characters as well- Natalia, (Dimi and Natalia's dad) and Caleb, poor Liam, and others, but those are the main ones.… (más)

One, Two, Three is an easy read-- that is if you know nothing about ballet. There is a certain reverence dancers have toward their art and they would never use ballet terms as allegory. I think the author was trying at add a bit of color, but in my opinion, this was a flawed move.

Still, though, she did a great job portraying the alcoholic mother and the strife Natalia went through. While this is meant also to be a romance, I would view it more as a coming of age story.

Actual Rating: 3.5/5 stars

One, Two, Three is not a kind book that I haven't encountered before but I still enjoyed it just the same.

The plot:

Natalya's dad died while driving one day with her on a car. Natalya survived though but like her dad, her dream to become a prima ballerina also passed away with him. She acquired so much damaged that her audition to Julliard was postponed. Her mother, Katya, succumbs to drinking to oblivion and vodka became her bestfriend. Natalya tries to balance everything: her mother, new school, friends, a guy and in fact, she's doing well. Until a huge secret goes out where Natalya finds herself being like her mom, yielding to alcohol just to escape and numb herself..

Yup. This does reminds me of Perfect Chemistry. The girl and boy has issues of their own. The drug conflicts, the family being against their relationship. But still, I liked this one.

I actually guessed the secret before it came out! I totally understand why Natalya felt like the world just stopped moving and how she badly needed to numb herself.

The characters:

Natalya. I loved her determination to stand up and proved herself even after the accident. At first, she has a problem of letting people get close to her but she did warm up with others. I just felt sad for her when she turned to drinking. Just so many awful things dumped into her life like that, I don't blame her.

Antonio. I am not actually comfortable about him at first. I feel like he has some "stalker tendencies". But as the story progresses, I liked him more as Natalya's love interest. Their relationship is far from perfect but it's real.

I actually liked the friendship between Natalya and Becca. I liked that the protagonist here doesn't get all the attention because that would be so annoying and tiring. Everyone involved in the story offered something and no character is a waste of space.

I also adored Karina, Tonio's little sister. She's the perfect picture of hope, giddiness and everything Natalya doesn't have. I loved when they got along so well.

The ending:

The ending felt like kind of open-ended. I wonder if the author will try to write a sequel for this one. And if she will, I'll definitely read it.

Overall, this was a great book about dealing with loss and how to face everything after that. Definitely recommended.
