As the school year unfolds, a shocking incident rocks the ballet world: the star ballerina, Cassie Shore, is found dead, and suspicions fall upon the three aspiring dancers. With each step, the lines between ambition, envy, and desperation blur as the true nature of their motivations is revealed.

Charaipotra masterfully captures the intensity and allure of the ballet world, where young dancers push their bodies and minds to the limit in pursuit of their dreams. The novel delves into the dark side of this art form, exposing the cutthroat competition, the physical and psychological toll it takes on the dancers, and the obsessive nature that can consume their lives.

The characters in Tiny Pretty Things are as complex and flawed as they are captivating. Neveah, with her troubled past and raw talent, fights to overcome her demons and find her place in the unforgiving world of ballet. Bette, haunted by her past, struggles to reconcile her identity as a dancer with her true self. And June, driven by ambition and a desperate need to succeed, will stop at nothing to achieve her goals.

Through the intertwining narratives of these three young women, Charaipotra explores themes of self-discovery, ambition, and the consequences of pursuing perfection at any cost. Tiny Pretty Things is a gripping and thought-provoking novel that will resonate with readers long after they finish the last page.

For fans of ballet, mysteries, and coming-of-age stories, Tiny Pretty Things is a must-read. Sona Charaipotra's novel will captivate you from the first page and keep you on the edge of your seat until the very end.
