185 I think that's Maggie Adams, Dancer. A reviewer on Goodreads says:

I loved the story of Maggie Adams, struggling to become a dancer despite opposition from family and boyfriend. We also see how hard it is when two of Maggie's friends fall by the wayside. One of them lacks the physical ability, while the other succumbs to an eating disorder.

185 I feel like Shonen Jump & Shojo Beat only featured Viz books. Are you sure it was a Tokyopop manga?

Could it maybe have been Confidential Confessions? Those had separate stories https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
185 Jane Eyre?
185 Here's a Kirkus Review of Dorrie's Book. They mention a character named Genevieve https://www.kirkusreviews.com/book-re...
185 Maybe the sequel to Time at the Top, All in Good Time? https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/1...
185 That sounds really interesting, Sarah! I know Virago publishes a lot of older works - was this book actually published in the 19th or early 20th centuries? Or is it more modern historical fiction?
185 You're welcome! I read that a year or so ago. It's interesting how different it is from modern YA.
185 I think that's The China Garden https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/8...
